PM Luxon says that tax relief for landlords will create ‘downward pressure’ - cagey words implying rents will go down. H/ever, he also says removing GST on produce is a waste, as retailers will absorb the difference. Then…why won’t landlords do the same? #nzpol

Downward pressure just means they won’t increase as fast or as much (hopefully🤞) It’s political speak to justify their policy However because of the housing supply issue and the reduction of the brightline to two years it will just enable more property speculation
