SCRAP MY LAND TAX

TO STATE & TERRITORY PARLIAMENTS

We, the undersigned Australians, call on all state and territory governments to immediately withdraw policies that increase the burden of land tax including frozen thresholds, surcharges, and new levies that punish responsible homeowners, small investors, and self-funded retirees.
THESE TAXES
  • Erode confidence in property ownership
  • Undermine housing supply and affordability
  • Penalise those who contribute to the economy
  • Trap the next generation in an endless cycle of rent and rising costs

We reject a future where governments balance their books by raiding family savings.
We demand sustainable budgets, not short-sighted land grabs.

Rents rise as costs are passed onto tenants. Owners sell up. Fewer homes are built. It deepens the housing crisis and shrinks the productive economy while government waste keeps growing.

SCRAP MY LAND TAX-right-img

STATE GOVERNMENTS ARE TARGETING YOUR HOME, YOUR SAVINGS — YOUR FUTURE

  • First it was Victoria, now it’s New South Wales. If we don’t stop them, other states and territories will follow.
  • State governments addicted to spending and without restraint are coming after hardworking Australians to foot the bill. Their plan?
    A direct attack on homeowners and investors through punishing land taxes that are rapidly becoming their main source of income.
SIGN THE PETITION

1

THE VICTORIA LAND TAX RAID.

Victoria has:
• Slashed the land tax threshold from $300,000 to just $50,000
• Introduced a “temporary” COVID debt levy running for a decade
• Sent land tax bills skyrocketing — some up more than 300%

2

NSW IS NEXT

NSW has frozen its land tax threshold — dragging more families into the tax net every year as property values rise.
They’re chasing an extra $1.5 billion, and you’re the target.

3

AXE THE TAX AND STOP IT GOING NATIONALLY.

Once this becomes accepted, no state or territory will stop going further.
• Families with an investment property or holiday home
• Small business owners who’ve invested in property to build wealth
• Young Australians who’ll inherit higher taxes, less housing
• Retirees who planned ahead and are now being slugged for it

WHAT AUSTRALIANS ARE SAYING

– Linda
“It’s extremely unfair. Life’s tough enough as it is. This was the last straw”
ABC News, “Victorian government accused of ‘unfair’ land tax as couple slugged for granny flat housing elderly mother”, 11 June 2024.
– James
“These costs are going to go straight through to renters”
News.com.au, ‘This is a tax grab’: NSW property investors targeted in $1.5 billion move, and they’re not alone, 8 July 2024.
– Andrew
“It’s outrageous. No one can budget for a few hundred per cent in increased costs in a few years.”
Herald Sun, Looming land tax bills force Victorian landlords to sell or hike rent, 20 May 2024.
State and territory governments are hiking land taxes to cover runaway spending. Victoria has cut its threshold from $300,000 to $50,000, added a 10-year “COVID levy”, and sent some bills up more than 300%. NSW has frozen its $1.075m threshold, dragging in thousands more properties each year to raise $1.5 billion extra.
Families with a rental property or granny flat, small business owners who invested in property, and self-funded retirees. These aren’t taxes on the ultra-rich — they’re punishing everyday Australians who worked, saved, and planned ahead.
Rents rise as costs are passed to tenants. Owners sell up. Fewer homes are built. It deepens the housing crisis and shrinks the productive economy while government waste keeps growing.
No. Queensland is pulling in tens of thousands more properties as land values jump. The ACT is issuing backdated land tax bills more than a decade old. Once normalised, these punitive taxes will spread everywhere unless stopped now.
