Solemn Sloth posted:2) A tax on dwellings that sit unoccupied for more than 6 months of the year, valued at 1% of the capital improved value per year It's a pity the plan is not as straightforward as that, it won't have the impact a proper land tax would: quote:There will be exemptions if it is a holiday house, a deceased estate or if the owner is overseas. Reminds me of the discussion around property taxes in Italy (or could possibly be Greece) where if the building is under construction they don't have to pay tax, so they just leave a room incomplete in many homes so they can dodge. I feel like we're going to have the same avoidance strategy where foreign investment isn't touched and local investors just line up to declare their holiday homes.

You Am I posted:loving hell this government does the complete opposite to what experts tell them to do, don't they? To clarify I wouldn't either, but I think I've had pretty average earnings and time worked for a mid 30s woman and I have less than $50k in super. I would need to pull it all for a house deposit at current medians, and that would leave me retiring with maybe $100k? I don't even know how much you're meant to have but it doesn't seem like that's how much you're theoretically supposed to have. So it's just setting up another Boomer-esque pension crisis or starvation as above

Being forced to live with your parents probably isn't the common interpretation of 'high-incone household' (pub test would assume domestic partnership) but I bet it's more than 2/3s of the households they're referring to.
