KTG Property Podcast: The strategy to win after this budget

Most investors are still reacting to the headlines. But buried in the fine print? The biggest tax overhaul in 26 years, with holding behaviour and investment structures already starting to reshape how property decisions are made. Property accountant Jeremy Iannuzzelli joins Kev Tran on the KTG Property Podcast to break down what the federal budget actually means for Australian investors and why the window to act strategically may be closing fast. Negative gearing, capital gains tax (CGT), trusts, and self-managed super funds (SMSFs) – every major lever is being adjusted at once, and investors who fail to adapt risk being left behind while others quietly reposition. The duo explains that changes to negative gearing could reshape investor behaviour by encouraging longer hold periods and tightening supply in key markets, while the return to indexation-style CGT calculations could materially alter long-term strategy around exits and portfolio restructuring. Attention then turns to trusts and SMSFs, with the pair highlighting a noticeable shift toward superannuation structures as investors search for more tax-efficient ways to continue building property portfolios. Despite the uncertainty, Iannuzzelli argues the investors who stay strategic and deliberate, rather than reactive, will be the ones best positioned to navigate and potentially benefit from the next phase of the market. 💡To learn more about KTG Property Advisory: 👉 Website: https://kevtran.com.au/
