    $1300 per room per week. Room in a lodging house at $185 per day - not even a motel room!

    Like I wrote, it’s not her money and if Cindy can create & breed beneficiaries with tax payers’ funds, she jolly well will.

    Dont be so sure of that.

    I know of a house that was listed for $5750000, then whatever housing Corp is known as now, paid $625000 when the vendor resisted selling to them on principle.

    No wonder house prices are through the roof, when buyers are competing with reckless use of the taxpayer funded cheque book.

    That would be deal of the century to settle for 10.8% of the asking price

    Assume you mean $575,000.

    Indeed Cindy has been instructing Housing NZ (or whatever meaningless Maori BS name it is called these days) to bid & outbid for properties at auctions.

    Part of her cunning plan to make housing unaffordable so more beneficiaries are bred by her government to become Labour voters.

    Cindy is doing such a great job, creating poverty & demand as her plan to breed more beneficiaries & Labour supporters bears abundant fruit.

    As for dobby41 blaming National, how long has Cindy been in power to create such a housing disaster?
    Answer me these
    - where did the demand suddenly come from? Where were these people housed before?
    - if they used to be in rental accommodation then why isn't all that rental accommodation empty?
    - how, exactly, did this Govt create a housing disaster?

    So the Govt is a major player in the property market and moving prices.
    Go and look up what percentage of houses they have purchased.
    I have heard this many times and it still isn't credible if you look at the sales stats.

    My goodness - 254 out of how many houses sold?
    "The analysis found that in 2018, Kainga Ora bought 55 starter homes under the first-home grant caps. It bought a further 117 in 2019, 72 in 2020 and another 10 this year. It's a total of 254, meaning nearly a quarter of the homes it's buying rather than building are affordable homes."

    Coooeee dobby41. I didn't hear back from you. Are you, or have you been on the Labour payroll? I've seen this asked of you before without a reply. It would be good to clear it up.
    I'm happy to declare I am not affiliated with any political party.....and never have been.

    Seems like an inherited problem. 76k+ migrants in National's last year with no where to place them.

    Plus house prices increasing even in the US means its an international problem which few countries have solved so far.
