Critics cast doubt on effectiveness of policy, citing low volume of purchases by overseas buyers, as Labor seeks to improve housing affordability

A step in the right direction in my view in terms of limiting foreign investment purchases though as is mentioned in the article its a small fish with easy workarounds already popular. Also unfortunate that it is only 2 years at this stage.

    Absolutely. It’s not going to do much on its own but hopefully the first of multiple policies to push thinigs in the right direction.
