They definitely want house prices to start going up again.
National campaigned on several measures that have a known effect of raising house prices e.g. narrowing the RBNZ mandate, moving the bright line test, reintroducing tax incentives.
I’m from a completely different continent, but still feel pretty confident in answering “because National is a bunch of corrupt demagogues who are against everything good and in favor of everything bad”.
