In this episode, Lloyd Edge gives his unfiltered reaction to the budget changes hitting Australian property investors right now. Negative gearing on the chopping block. Capital gains tax discount being cut from 50% to 33%. A Prime Minister who promised before the election — on the record — that there would be no changes to negative gearing or CGT. Then changed his position entirely halfway through his term.
Lloyd breaks down exactly what these changes mean in real dollar terms for investors, why the government's claim that this helps young Australians get into the market is completely backwards, and what actually happens to rents when investors are punished out of the market — because it already happened in Australia once before, in 1985, and the government had to reverse the policy two years later because rents went through the roof.
The episode also covers what investors should actually be doing right now — adding value to existing properties, focusing on cash flow over negative gearing, considering company structures, and why a good property doesn't suddenly become a bad property overnight just because the tax rules changed.
This episode gives you straight answers — no spin, no fluff.
