The New South Wales premier, Dominic Perrottet, says it will be “difficult” for first-home buyers to enter Sydney’s housing market using the federal government’s proposed superannuation access policy.
While Perrottet, who has made addressing housing affordability a key priority for his government, said he welcomed the Coalition’s proposal to allow first-home buyers to access to up to $50,000 of their superannuation to buy a property, he acknowledged it would be of little help for many people.
