    Hi Aaron.

    You can’t really blame people who utilise a facility that they are legally entitled to use (such as the FHOG). If blame is to be laid, it should be at the feet of those who wordsmithed the grant legislation.

    Incidentally I have anecdotal evidence of young children of Aussie home owners purchasing property (presumably with suitable guarantees to the bank from Mum & Dad) and getting the FHOG.

    Blame the legislators.

    Cheers[:P]

    Hi Guys

    Why not work to get stamp duty abolished.We don’t have that in NZ so we don’t need $14000 grant to start with.

    My understanding is that in Victoria and NSW the FHOG doesn’t cover the stamp duty anyway.

    Get rid of the stamp duty therefore no need for a FHOG and therefore no worries about NZers getting handouts.

    The NZ Govt has steered clear of these grants which are thought to raise prices anyway.

    Roll on the World Cup.

    Regards.
