Agree entirely and it must be annoying when the goalposts shift around super and what not.

If you want people to downsize then offer an incentive to them by exempting them from stamp duty at the very least.

I'm sure plenty want to but stamp duty is BS that is quite a blocker for some people moving around. Not to mention all the other stuff that goes into moving around.
