If we can't buy land in their home country, they can't buy land in ours
@6H9D64T4yrs4Y
Foreigners should not be about to purchase land until they are working, tax paying, citizens of New Zealand. They should be capped at a maximum of two properties. They should be placed at the back of the line when I comes to prime real estate. They should not be able to purchase more than five hectares of land unless using it for some type of occupation e.g farming. Where they must employ New Zealanders.
Maximum 1 property and limited acreage and extremely high taxes
@8HRNP284yrs4Y
Foreigners and non residents should not be able to purchase any land in NZ
@9DZ6BZS1yr1Y
Don't we already require approval for purchasing property from overseas purchasers. Overseas Investment commission.
Foreigners, if they are not living in NZ should not be allowed any purchase of land.
@9D84MNF1yr1Y
Yes, but with a caveat that their purchase of land contributes back to NZ and NZers in some way e.g., jobs, taxes, giving back to the land - like buy this land here and contribute xx to reforestation or roads or railway etc. etc.
@9V878ZF2mos2MO
Foreigners should not be allowed to buy land at all. (Unless was for a wider community well being etc)
@9HK9YD6 12mos12MO
China inland of Maori respect for the unions keep learning new loops bunk by legend former UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson and former US president Donald Trump left wing issued
@9G6ST7X1yr1Y
Foreign business should need consent and evidence of NZ benefits, plus higher tax. However Foreigners who intend to live and use the land should be allowed at standard rates. Local NZ business should have priority.
@9G4MBY31yr1Y
Non citizen, non permanent residence should not be aloud to own land, property at all! full stop. That would be a very quick way to easy the housing market!
@9G45JKS1yr1Y
Yes, I’d prefer if land to foreign buyers was leased land only. They should also be taxed higher on that purchase.
Yes and make rights to purchase land reciprocal so that only citizens of countries which allow New Zealanders to purchase land have this right in NZ
@9G343YT1yr1Y
whatever country allows new Zealanders to purchase land should be allowed to purchase land in new zealand but if they don't then we shouldn't allow them too either
@9G3424J1yr1Y
No, only resurrections for migrants buying land not living in the country while claiming rent from citizens
Foreigners "not" living in New Zealand should not be aloud to purchase property in New Zealand.
It depends on the useful outcome!
Is a foreigner someone not born here? What is the 'foreigner' status? Applying for residency to live here, then yes - someone not intending to live here but buys up farms for exporting animals? No
Yes, deny foreign investment buying
If people buy houses they should be for living in or rented not left empty or a ghost house
@9F6LXJM1yr1Y
No, people who are not NZ citizens or permanent residents should not be allowed to own NZ properties. Businesses should be NZ owned and operated too.
@9F5LZSJ1yr1Y
@9F5KMLF1yr1Y
Yes, except if entering a monopoly market
No not if they are living here. I think as long as they remain in NZ and don't go away for a certain period they should be allowed
No, and decrease taxes of foreign purchased land instead
Stop letting foreigners buy full stop
@9F3PYRB1yr1Y
Foreign buyers should be able to lease land for business purposes long term with environmental caveats in place
They shouldn't be allowed to purchase any land
Citizens should also require consent
If they already have a house in another country then yes because they could then do tax evasion and no-one likes that
Should be for citizens as well as foreigners
@9F2ZC821yr1Y
Foreign investment is what has got us in the terrible state we are in- overseas investors buy here, go home and pay tax there, leave their partners and kids here to suck up the schooling system, bring their elders out to suck from the health system, while many, not all, do not contribute to the systems they suck from. House prices go up so our kids will NEVER own a home - this is not an answer to our problems here. Nationals new policy regarding overseas investment is like putting make up over a wound - it will not heal but it will look good for a little while.
@9F2CFJK1yr1Y
No one living outside New Zealand should be eligible to purchase land or a house.
This should apply to both non citizens and citizens
@9DZVPTB1yr1Y
If a foreigner wants land and has money plenty of NZ companies happy to facilitate... None of this matters really.
@9DZV9JT1yr1Y
Quotas or restrictions on the amount of land available for foreign ownership.
Priority access for citizens to certain types of land or properties.
Stringent criteria for foreign investors, ensuring that their projects align with national development goals and do not harm local interests.
Foreigners should not be able to by land or houses in NZ. Only when they have an economical connection with Nz
@9DYWX481yr1Y
Not if the become New Zealanders
Yes. And to disclose what the reasoning behind the purchase is
depends on how valuable non urban land is. Land that has forestries shouldnt be sold to foreigners.
@9DXS7W51yr1Y
Yes, and all large foreign land purchases should require consent from the council and iwi.
@9DX6NDK1yr1Y
Depends if they get a citizenship
if going to live and use the land then yes it’s fine
@9DWYLMX1yr1Y
If they are living on the land, no, they should not need consent.
ban foreign land purchase.
@9DWVVW21yr1Y
It should be if it going to be environmental positive and country growth positive
@9DWKW351yr1Y
No foreigners should not be allowed to purchase land without Maori being given first right of refusal, NZ citizens and companies. only then if it is passed on the foreign purchases should require consent and taxed
@9DWJKDR1yr1Y
They shouldn’t be allowed to buy it… Fullstop
@9DVRDFD1yr1Y
I don't think foreigners should be allowed to buy anymore land
Stop privatization of land
@9DVKXQG1yr1Y
For the building of businesses that employ people
Yes, but foreigners should be prohibited from purchasing land anyway until they become a permanent resident
No, foreigners should be prohibited from purchasing land until they become a permanent resident
@9DV8JGZ1yr1Y
Yes as long as they work and contribute
No consent but a land tax should be applied to all unproductive land and housing
@9DTLSTL 1yr1Y
Non NZ citizens should not be allowed to own/buy land.
@9DT8H2F1yr1Y
I believe that it should be allowed for foreigners who have lived in New Zealand and supported our economy for x amount of years
Yes, but only if they already own property
Depends if the land is decile with or lush with trees
@9DSZN8L1yr1Y
Yes, if not in the country
@9DSK8HN1yr1Y
No foreign purchase of land/property or business
Foreigners should not be able to buy in our country without working in investing here. They should not be able to land bank they should have to live in their house is more than 80% of the time, they should pay Texas on the purchases and invest in New Zealand
@9DRXV7H1yr1Y
Foreigners who havnt made NZ as their permanent residence for 5+ years SHOULDN’T be purchasing NZ land.
Yes, But there should be massive restrictions on foreign home ownership and land ownership. If a foreign person wants to buy a piece of land they should have to have things in place such as stewardship practices. And they have to purchase a piece of land for a NZer who doesn't own land that should be the costs bared.
@9DRPGN61yr1Y
Only purchase with intent to live on it. Non saleable for 5!years
@9DQLNWD1yr1Y
everyone should have their own land and not give away five hectares of their land
foreigners who have a nz citizenship can purchase as much land as they want but foreigners on holidays may not purchase land
@9DQJDMD1yr1Y
Only people residing in NZ Should be able to buy land.
@9DQCX3D1yr1Y
Foreigners can only lease our land.
@9DPFG981yr1Y
They must have moved here to live here
Yes, only when foreigners are affecting the access of local people to housing and land.
Yes, but not to build housing on
@9DN6J2T1yr1Y
This depends on where the land is and what it is being used for
@9DMSH5C1yr1Y
Yes, but there should also be a cap on how much land they can buy and taxes should be increased on foreign purchased land as well
@9DMC6CL1yr1Y
Yes. All foreign land purchases should require consent and have to pay higher taxes
@9DLFGC41yr1Y
Non-resident foreign ownership of land and rental properties should require consent or be disallowed.
@9DKL25D1yr1Y
give all the land to the Māori people
No Foreign Buyers of Land At All!!!
@9DF8ZQJ1yr1Y
Yes, but from mana whenua.
No, but the land must be occupied by the owner
Foreigners should not be allowed to purchase land they can lease or rent it.
@9DDH7331yr1Y
everyone need consent to purchase land...?
@9DD5ZRD1yr1Y
No lane to be sold to Any foreign person
@9DCV9J91yr1Y
yes, but not for a house that they will live in.
Only if they have New Zealand citizenship
If you are not a permanent resident or citizen you have no business buying property.
not if they are going to live on it and use it
@9DBKDMD1yr1Y
No. Increasing taxes could add/up costs to residents and not those foreign - impact the cost-of-living/housing affordability. Perhaps placing limitations on purchase consents that would require prerequisite knowledge of te ao maori and te tiriti principles relevant to land use.
@9DB2P5S1yr1Y
only if they have lived here for 3 years or less
@9DB2GBL1yr1Y
foreign corporations or landlords purchasing more than 2 houses should, and pay more tax, but not for foreign individuals buying a home
@9D9XZL41yr1Y
I think only citizens should be able to buy houses because I will never buy now.
@9D9GD931yr1Y
Give back the land to the indigenous
@9D9G2S31yr1Y
Yes, only if they do not plan on living on the land or using it for produce.
Yes, unless they are moving here to live. If they are using it as an investment there should be increased tax/a more difficult process to attain that land giving citizens a chance
@9D783Q71yr1Y
Yes, but only to make sure that the owners will spend a certain amount of time in the country each year.
