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.

Certainly true and always a difficult topic when it comes to bringing down house prices. It’s what those of us who don’t already own a home need but it’s political suicide to actually attempt to achieve. Home owners are still the majority of voters and also more influencial (and more likely to be donors).
I suppose the other strategy that they may be going for here is keeping price increases below inflation this is still probably not enough to do even that. Can only hope there is more to come.
