Want your house to be worth up to 20% less than what you paid for it? Vote for the Opportunities Party.
TOP wants to drive property prices down by 10–15% through their 1.75% Land Value Tax, but in reality the policy could easily trigger a sharper correction of 20% or more — hammering retirees on fixed incomes and first-home buyers who stretched to get into the market.
For the 100,000+ Kiwis who bought near the 2021–2022 peak, imagine a deliberate 10–20% policy-driven drop layered on top of any correction your property has already suffered, plus a permanent 1.75% annual tax on the land value.
The Opportunity Party calls itself centrist, but this is classic left-wing, Green Party-level interventionism.
