Typical of this Labor govt, this policy is about appearing to do something, than actually doing it effectively.
Why not have levies for all houses sitting vacant, not just foreign owned? Why not make annual fees higher and higher if you own more than say 3 properties? How about fees for land banking in cities ?
Also better make sure that a house used for air BNB 2 weeks a year doesn't count as being used.
Well if they can appeal to people's xenophobia to deflect from the problems of landlords and capitalism in general then they'll do that. Gotta keep capitalism chugging along, even while they tut-tut about all the problems it's causing.
