A grant for people who have never had first home buyers grant, regardless of prior home purchase history as a way of allowing people to gain a foot on property ladder

 @9ZTQK9JCoalition answered…3mos3MO

No, it distorts the market and puts first home owners in more debt due to increasing demand for entry level properties

 @9ZF8CW5Greenanswered…3mos3MO

yes, as long as we actively address other factors such as limiting tax breaks on investment properties

 @9WNJ2H2from Virginia  answered…4mos4MO

No, it drives up prices. They need to stop immigration for many years and let housing catch-up. Also prevent investors from buying existing stock (only new builds) if that will help too.

 @9WCPZ63Laboranswered…4mos4MO

will only add to house price increases, de-incentivise investment housing as the primary investment choice for Australians instead by ending negative gearing and tax breaks for people who own multiple properties.

current subsidy not effective - supply problem need to increase housing supply

 @9T4MTQNanswered…5mos5MO

Stamp duty should be reviewed particularly in NSW rather than funding new buyers creating more demand, therefore higher prices. Subsidise retirees to downsize to open more houses for sale. More stock lower prices.

 @9SZNK9Nanswered…6mos6MO

Yes but only if a way can be found that doesn't automatically hike the price in keeping, which amounts to the subsidy benefitting the seller, not the first home buyer.

What values or priorities do you think should determine who qualifies for assistance in buying a home?

 @ISIDEWITHasked…5mos5MO

Do you agree or disagree with the idea that it’s better for the government to focus on building more affordable housing than to provide direct financial help to buyers?

 @ISIDEWITHasked…5mos5MO

How would owning your first home change your life, and what obstacles do you currently see in reaching that goal?

 @ISIDEWITHasked…5mos5MO

How important do you think owning a home is to achieving stability and personal success?

 @ISIDEWITHasked…5mos5MO

Do you think financial aid from the government for homebuyers should be prioritized over other public services? Why or why not?

 @B2XTMXTGreenanswered…5 days5D

No because all it has done is cause builders to increase the cost of their homes and developments by the same amount or more

 @ISIDEWITHasked…5mos5MO

How do you feel about the idea of paying taxes to support homeownership programs — would you be willing to contribute to help others buy homes?

 @ISIDEWITHasked…5mos5MO

Is owning a home something you think everyone should aspire to, or is renting a better fit for some people’s lifestyles?

 @ISIDEWITHasked…5mos5MO

Do you believe government programs that help first-time homebuyers could lead to unintended consequences like rising home prices?

 @ISIDEWITHasked…5mos5MO

Have you or anyone you know been impacted by the high cost of housing, and what emotions does that bring up for you personally?

 @ISIDEWITHasked…5mos5MO

If you could design a program to help young people achieve homeownership, what important features would you include or exclude?
