What the Finder Housing Affordability Survey Reveals About Policy Failures
Manage episode 505812612 series 1490683
Is negative gearing really to blame for Australia’s housing crisis?
A new Finder survey asked 22 leading economists, academics, and property experts how to make housing more affordable — and their answers may surprise you. Not one pointed to negative gearing, and only one mentioned capital gains tax. Instead, the focus was on boosting housing supply, cutting red tape, rethinking demand-side incentives, and even considering the impact of migration.
In this episode, we unpack what the experts actually said, why the usual media narratives miss the mark, and what solutions could really make a difference to Australia’s housing affordability problem.
