A building company used to construct affordable housing under a government program has been linked to a notorious residential construction company that collapsed last year amid legal battles.
Residents in a new, government-owned affordable housing block say they were dismayed to discover problems within weeks of moving in.
When Ms Riley's name was drawn, letting the first-time renter and her boyfriend move in without a rental history, the long leases and below-market rent seemed too good to be true.

"SLC Bayside takes its obligations seriously and all reported defects have either been rectified or are in the process of being rectified in line with our defect liability period." Another creditor, apartment-owner Tamara Railton-Stewart, described the saga as an "ongoing nightmare"., she said she was about $250,000 out of pocket from interest on a strata loan, legal fees, expert reports and accommodation costs.
That third company is called 44 Station Road Pty Ltd, and ASIC records reveal its director as Samira Zemaryalai, who shares a residential address with Obaid Naqebullah and has been referred to in legal documents as his wife. There is no suggestion of issues with the asset transfers, and the liquidator has decided the transaction was a legitimate sale.
