Key points
- It would make house prices increase by more than the maximum amount people could withdraw
- It would cost the government $1 trillion in the long run
- It would leave people with $200k less in retirement savings
- It would significantly affect the returns on all superannuation as funds would need to keep more cash reserves uninvested so it is available for withdrawal
I’m confused, property investment is our economy, so how can it go to shit if house prices are going up?
