A higher yield is not automatically a better commercial property investment.

We're seeing a lot of investors and residential buyer's agents, often whose pipelines have tightened, moving into commercial right now, largely for cash flow. It's an understandable step: in commercial, the tenant generally pays close to 100% of the outgoings, so a quoted net yield of 6–7% is a genuine return, rather than a gross figure eroded by costs.

But the "paper" yield is where many first-time commercial buyers get caught.

A higher yield usually reflects higher risk, thinner tenant demand, higher vacancy, or a weaker lease and tenant covenant. Compare a ~7% regional asset with a ~5% net asset in a low-vacancy capital city. Factor in a possible vacancy, the letting-up period and the costs of carrying an empty asset, and over a ten-year hold the lower-yielding, better-located property will more often than not come out in front on fundamentals.

If you're weighing a commercial purchase, it pays to look past the headline number.

A house might sell in 60 days, but commercial property plays a longer, steadier game. So how do you know when it's time to diversify?

Following the biggest property policy changes of 2026, many investors are reassessing where property fits in their long-term strategy. On the latest episode of The Buy-In, Trent (residential) and Nick (commercial) break down how to keep moving forward.

If you've been wondering whether commercial has a place in your portfolio, this one's worth a watch.

Earlier, we asked whether people could be forced to lower their expectations in retirement. But there’s a bigger question behind it:

As our population ages and the number of taxpayers supporting each retiree declines, how will we fund the retirements of future generations?

For many people, property investment is part of their personal strategy to build long-term wealth and create financial security for the future.

So what happens if we make it harder for people to build enough wealth to support themselves?

Australia’s ageing population means more people will need to fund longer retirements, with increasing pressure on the systems designed to support them. For those who haven’t accumulated enough wealth, that could mean adjusting expectations and living on far less than they planned.

Will you be forced to lower your expectations in retirement?

Well - that got you all talking! Commercial property is having a moment...

Since our last conversation, there’s been more clarity around the government changes, a major development for SMSFs, and a lot more noise about what investors should do next.

So we got back around the table 🎙️

This time last week we were joined by Nick Selbie, Director of Commercial & Advisory, to unpack why commercial property is firmly in the conversation and what investors and business owners need to understand before making their next move.

From tenants and leases to borrowing, cash flow, risk and the fundamentals that can make or break an investment, we look beyond the headlines at what these changes could actually mean.

Because commercial property may become increasingly relevant for some investors and business owners, but the fundamentals of good advice have not changed:

📢 Strategy comes first. The asset comes second.

Could the government's budget plan backfire? 🤔

Instead of boosting supply, it could actually shrink the rental pool, push rents higher, and make homeownership even harder for young Australians.

For investors, it could be a rare buying opportunity...

What do you think? 🏠💡
