Why not pay a full non means treated pension to all people over 75 provided they only own one home.? Why not increase the yearly allowance from $6000.00 per year with max 30000 over 5 years for pensioners to give away without affecting their pension ? Create an allowance of $50000 per child for a house deposit. people live longer now and so transfer of assets is later in life than previous generations. These ideas could be refined by research to determine if viable instead of plodding along and fiddling with past processes that are no longer affective in helping with home ownership given the falling levels and renting increases in home occupation. Many ideas can be created that are positive for all instead of just simply blaming others for their wealth creation within the existing rules. we need new rules that appeal to all, not just those complaining that housing affordability issues are the creation of landlords .......They are the creation of lack of government action and management.
