Government policy shifts, tax restructuring, and auction rule changes have fundamentally shifted the way Australians buy property. Staying on top of these changes is essential if you want to avoid expensive oversights, and we are handing you the updated roadmap to guide your journey. In this episode, we unpack: Unfiltered Budget Reactions and Strategy Pivots: Unpacking the federal budget changes, how tax shakeups affect borrowing capacities, and why clients are pivoting their buying strategies. Negative Gearing, CGT, and Off the Plan Risks: The shift in tax benefits toward new builds, whether rushing into off the plan developments is a smart move or a trap, and potential supply droughts in established housing. Auction Rules and Trust Structures: How mandatory pre auction reserve price disclosures affect buyers and vendors, and how high net worth investors are restructuring their trusts. We firmly believe that with persistence, proper structure, and the right advocates in your corner, almost any buying roadblock can be navigated. In this episode, Preet Samra, founder and senior mortgage broker at Grow & Co Finance, is joined by special guest and expert buyer's agent Cate Bakos to lay out exactly why.
