The need for a comprehensive tax and housing affordability plan is highlighted, especially in light of potential shifts in the political landscape.

She confirmed to Nine newspapers that she owns a flat in London valued at over $1 million and another property in Canberra, raising questions about her transparency.

Describing herself as an 'Oxford-educated renter', Hamer has publicly addressed the struggles of renting, including rising rent costs on national platforms.

Broader discussions surrounding housing policy include concerns about government subsidies for home batteries, which some argue favor wealthier households over those in need.

As she campaigns against incumbent MP Monique Ryan, who also owns a property, Hamer's property ownership may influence the election dynamics.

Despite presenting herself as a renter, Hamer did not disclose her status as a landlord when discussing housing issues, which critics argue undermines her credibility.

Her campaign emphasizes making home ownership attainable for young Australians, advocating for policies that allow access to superannuation for home deposits.

Hamer has openly criticized government policies on urban density, which she believes hinder young people's ability to achieve home ownership.

Hamer's situation reflects deeper issues within Australia's tax system that tend to favor property investment for the wealthy, exacerbating housing affordability challenges.

Amelia Hamer, a Liberal candidate vying for the Kooyong seat in Melbourne's inner east, is under scrutiny for her dual identity as a renter and a property owner.

Public reaction to Hamer's situation has been mixed, with some praising her achievements while others criticize her lack of disclosure and potential misleading statements.

At 31 years old, Hamer, who has a background in banking and venture capital, is attempting to reclaim the Kooyong seat after the previous loss of former Liberal leader Josh Frydenberg.
