The policy's unpopularity stems from concerns that accessing superannuation early will exacerbate the housing affordability crisis by driving up prices, rather than solving the underlying issues. Experts like Saul Eslake point to a 60-year history of similar policies increasing housing costs, making homeownership less accessible. The Everybody's Home survey, while not a scientific poll, indicates widespread worry amongst its respondents.
