It should be multiplied 10x
It’s a 10% tax it’s absolutely nothing to these giant companies buying them, even 20% isn’t enough. Make it 100 and thus essentially ban it

Just make it exponential. Double it worth every extra property purchased

Should be 20-30x
Actually how about building houses for people who badly need them.

How about jacking up inheritance tax too? If you want a social leveller, that’s a huge one. Divert (some) money from wealthy folks and redirect towards education/apprenticeships/whatever to create opportunities for everyone.
“The EXACT same data Fine Gael is using to now call for higher penalty for bulk purchasing houses was used by Sinn Féin in January to propose 17% stamp duty rate for funds bulk buying houses.
Govt (with funnily enough Neale Richmond himself on the floor for the vote) opposed it”

When someone is selling a house, there should be a restriction for the seller to not to rent it out, if they don’t agree add 23% VAT

Why are bulk purchases allowed at all?
