Can you put a price on the cost of keeping property in a bubble? Probably not but we can try....
$15,000,000,000 - Yes, 15 Billion Dollars
Keep in mind this figure ONLY takes into account the NSW & VIC First Home Owners Grants and 1 year of negative gearing back in 2004. It's quite staggering!
FHOG:
NSW = $7.692 BILLION (2000 - 2011)
VIC = $2.021 BILLION (2008 - 2011)
Negative Gearing
$3,900,000,000 (2004-05)
"Negative gearing payments made by the Australian Commonwealth government to landlords suffering a loss"
