Trying to figure out how to approach your financing and overall strategy following the budget?...
In this episode of Perth Property Insider, Jarrad is joined by Nick Aves from Purely Finance to reveal the most important financial things to consider now that the budget has changed many of the things we took for granted.
With uncertainty around negative gearing on established properties, potential capital gains tax changes, borrowing capacity, rising holding costs, interest rates, and Western Australia’s ongoing housing shortage, investors need a clear strategy more than ever.
In this episode, we cover:
✅ What proposed negative gearing changes mean for your borrowing power
✅ How capital gains tax changes may affect long-term investment decisions
✅ Why existing negatively geared properties could become more valuable
✅ One thing investors should avoid making decisions based on (too many are doing this)
✅ A simple way to protect tax-deductible debt
