The federal budget has been handed down, and with it, major changes to tax treatment for investors. But will the changes have the intended effect of making the Australian property market more accessible?

In this episode of In Focus, real estate educator Tom Panos joins Momentum Media’s director, Phil Tarrant, and managing editor for real estate, Liam Garman, to pull apart the most controversial investor tax changes in years.

From the scrapping of negative gearing for all but new builds, to rethinking how capital gains tax works, and the breaking of core election promises, this discussion connects the dots between government policy and the future of Australian property investment.

The trio discuss why the moves may have unintended consequences, why accountants and brokers will now be hot property, and why the budget fails to address the elephant in the room: supply.

Tune in to find out:

  • Why the indexation model might actually benefit long-term investors.
  • How the government is reshaping the risk–reward balance for rentvestors and aspiring home owners.
  • The structural reason supply won’t budge, even with $2 billion in government stimulus.

And much more!
