The deduction would be the main price -increasing factor. Nonsense. The extreme rise in house prices is from, roughly, in the last 10 years. It was precisely in that period that the mortgage interest rate was very low, and the effect of the deduction was also. I think that the low interest rate has had more influence on prices decisive than the effect of the tax benefit. The Jubelton was, however, a price -rising tone, which also mainly took care of crooked relationships and opportunity inheritance between starters. The dominant reason for the price increase is quite obvious, namely: too little supply compared to growing demand. It is striking that this argument is hardly mentioned. Incidentally, the proceeds will be marginal. If house prices indeed fall, the government will also miss out on income. Because lower prices also influence VAT on new construction, the transfer tax and the inheritance tax. Count your winnings.
