Put a price on everything then, why single out landlords. If Polanski wants to cap the price for tenants, why doesn't he become a landlord and cap his own rent? Price caps are government overreach.

Reply to the comment left by Ian Cognito at 24/06/2026 - 16:47Let me get this straight, putting a tax on something will increase supply. Even if that was true, did you consider it would reduce demand? If I was thinking...

Taxed on square meters is a much fairer way. But as others have alluded to, its much more about being a cash grab. Bank robbers rob banks, because that is where the money is, and land value tax advocates go...

The Land tax is the worst of all taxes. All houses in New Zealand have a government valuation. This valuation has nothing to do with the properties real value. How can you continuously value a whole country's properties? Putting that...

The government shouldn't be putting fines on people pulling out. Just shorten the process to 20 days like other countries. What is a "legitimate reason." for pulling out. Can 2 half "legitimate reasons." count. What if there is a legitimate...

The end goal here is to make being a landlord impossible. Then complain landlords are a failure and the government should be landlords. Nationalisation of the rental sector.

If you are saying rental income and salary income are equal, and therefor rental income should have NI, then: Salary income should have Stamp Duty and Capital gains taxes. Even better, if the problem is they are not equal, then...

If they don't like the rent being charged, then live further out or in a smaller place, that's what I did when renting. When inflation and capital gains are taken into account are landlords really making super normal gains?

"79% of the public believe the government should play a role in ensuring private rents are affordable" 79 percent probably believe they should get free groceries and get quadruple pay rises. Doesn't make it a good idea or a workable...

Even better, because there is no bidding wars, landlords will advertise higher rents and accept lower bids. So if the market rents are advertised rents, it's all good.
