The collapse of these houses has nothing to do with stormy weather so much as criminal negligence on behalf of the people who built them on such poor foundations.

Heads should roll.

Plus.....they built them too close to the ocean.

I mean duh!

and the more closer to the ocean they are the higher their value until they finally get swept away which is when their value plummets !! Make hay while the sun shines Wink

Anyway, I've no sympathy for fools who ought to know better.

Technically the Council should be to blame. Firstly, for approving buildings so close to the cliff face and secondly, in lieu of approving the development, for not building a sea wall to minimise potential damage.

Speaking of slippages ... remember the Thredbo disaster?

18 people lost their lives because of a leaking tap.

Over months and maybe years this leaking tap soaked the ground so that it no longer had any tension in it to give it traction - until eventually the whole side of the hill simply slipped away for having no more grip on itself.

A leaking tap or a leaking pipe - can't remember which.

What are those houses worth now ? That storm would have knocked off a few million in value. Nobody is going to touch them with a barge pole Wink

Bulldoze the lot as unsafe and turn it into a park for the people.....

The homes in question WERE WORTH AROUND 3 TO 4 MILLION A FEW DAYS AGO.

THEY'RE WORTH NOTHING NOW.

Why?

The LAND these homes sit on is STILL crumbling AWAY AS I TYPE THIS POST.

Many of the beachfront homes in Sydney's north — some of them on the verge of collapse after the severe storms — are not likely to be insured against damage from the sea, the Insurance Council of Australia says.

That will depend very much on the insurance policy that they've purchased," he said.

"Many insurers don't cover actions of the sea. It's a very common exclusion.

"Actions of the sea is generally not covered by most insurance policies."

Re bulldozing, way too unsafe at this stage.

Been speaking to a few experts about this incident.

Govt will need to step in and secure the shoreline so as to ensure public safety.

Duty of care etc.

Whatever land remains after it stops moving will be a no go zone while lawyers work out who pays for what.

The residents in question will no doubt sue the Local Council. Why? They've got nothing to lose. And they can't sue their insurer. Why? This event will be considered an exclusion.
