The Federal Budget 2026-27 property measures received Royal Assent on 26 June 2026 and commence on 1 July 2027. From that date, negative gearing on residential property is limited largely to new builds, and the capital gains tax (CGT) discount is replaced with indexation for older stock. In this episode of The Considered Move, Andersen's Callen Dendle and Cameron Allen are joined by Richard Temlett, National Executive Director of Research at Charter Keck Cramer, to work through what the changes mean for investors, developers, housing supply and buyer behaviour, and the question many are quietly asking: if the rules change, where does demand go next?

In this episode of The Considered Move, Andersen's Callen Dendle and Cameron Allen are joined by Dermot Reiter, Senior Financial Adviser at APT Wealth Partners, to work through what the changes mean for investors, business owners and family groups, and the question many are quietly asking: do I sell before the change, or hold?
