My interest is in making housing more affordable. The way to do it is to increase the supply of land by changing planning law to enable householders to rent or have a permit to park a house on land zoned rural. The potential is enormous. Lots of cash sitting in term deposits looking for a better return. A superior standard of living would be secured by restricting density and making space available for kids to play.
