At which number does it become a business, then? Four houses? Five? Ten?
"Witness Luxon, a millionaire and owner of seven houses, protesting against this year’s minimum-wage increase, a lift that gave a full-time worker an extra $40 a week."
His actions said it all.
So if I recall - He has his own house, a beach house, his apartment in Wellington and 4 rentals. So 4 rentals isn't massive . He likely also has significant other assets outside property. And no he isn't a business owner - the rentals will be investments and he has for many years been paid a salary.
Nice to see a quick sidestep of the part when you included business owners in general.
