Rents Up 10%? What’s Next for Australian Property | Fat Profits Podcast Ep. 22

In Episode 22 of Fat Profits, Corey and the team sit down with Tash Invests and Jack Fouracre in Cebu, Philippines, for a wide-ranging conversation about the future of Australian property, investing, taxes and the housing market.The conversation explores whether rents could rise by more than 10%, why investor lending and sentiment are affecting rental supply, whether Australian property prices are likely to fall, and what the Federal Government's recent budget changes could mean for investors, first home buyers and renters.Tash and Jack also share their thoughts on risk, building wealth, property investing, the role of owner-occupied property, and why doing nothing can sometimes be the bigger risk. The group discusses housing affordability, negative gearing, SMSF lending, capital gains tax, stamp duty and whether Australia's current tax system is encouraging the right kind of investment.Timestamps00:00 Intro – Tash Invests & Jack Fouracre Join the Podcast03:00 The Big Prediction – Who Will Win the Next Election?07:04 Rental Armageddon – Are Rents About to Explode?12:02 First Home Buyers vs Property Investors – Who Is the Budget Really For?16:04 Tax, Growth & the Cost of Government Policy18:01 Tash Invests – Social Media, Trolls & Building an Audience20:00 Risk vs Inaction – Should You Still Be Buying Property?22:01 Blocking Out the Noise – Who Should You Listen To?25:16 The Reality of Buying a Home in Today's Market27:08 Are Property Investors Really the Problem?30:00 Fixing Australia's Housing Crisis – What Would Actually Work?33:00 Interest Rates & Government Policy – What Should Happen Next? 35:04 Capital Gains Tax, Business & The Policies They'd Change38:01 The Big Tax Idea – Scrap Income Tax and Raise GST?41:02 How Would You Build Wealth If You Started Again Today?43:00 Career, Property & Bitcoin – What Would They Do at 18?45:04 Final Thoughts & Where to Find the GuestsSpecial guests:Jack Fouracre: https://www.instagram.com/mortgage_freeman_/Natasha Etschmann: https://www.instagram.com/tashinvests/Work with mortgage brokers who invest themselves and have a proven track record of helping Australians build property portfolios.
