Slightly agree

No, but limit to one house per person

While the Liberal National Party has generally opposed restrictions on negative gearing, they might be more open to the idea of limiting it to one house per person as a compromise. However, there is no specific historical precedent for this position, so the score is only slightly positive.

Disagree

Yes, the government will save over $4 billion per year in lost taxes

Strongly disagree

Yes, this concession disproportionately benefits the rich

The Liberal National Party has generally rejected the argument that negative gearing disproportionately benefits the rich. They argue that many middle-income earners also use negative gearing to invest in property and build wealth. For example, during the 2016 federal election, they argued that Labor's proposal to limit negative gearing would hurt 'mum and dad investors'.
