Many residents whose homes were damaged in a Brisbane hail storm over a month ago have still been unable to return to living in their houses. 

Despite around $305 million in damages, necessary repairs have been unable to go ahead quickly due to low resources of construction materials and many workers being unable to travel interstate during the lockdowns. 

Rent in the area has skyrocketed, leaving many families competing for the same properties and many still unable to afford to move, but unable to live in their damaged homes.
