This month we’re focusing on the trending median gross yield.

The median gross yield shows the ratio of the median rent into the median price. Tracking the relationship between these two metrics is important, because rental growth can foreshadow price growth.

An increasing median gross yield rate therefore means that rental growth is outpacing price growth. This is a positive sign, because it means that holding costs will be lower in the short-term, and price growth may be expected in the medium-term. The converse is also true - a decreasing median gross yield signals that the house price is outpacing rental growth. This can be positive for short-term price growth, however the market may have already undergone significant price growth, and may therefore have less forecasted growth.

The gross rental yield is just one of many metrics we use to assess short and long term price movement.

This month we’re focusing on the trending Days on Market (DOM).

DoM is a simple metric to monitor the balance of supply and demand in a market which can be a leading indicator over time for positive or negative price growth.

Increasing DoM demonstrates increasing supply and/or decreasing demand. If DoM is above a market's long term average, this can be a leading indicator over time for slow or negative price growth.

Decreasing DoM demonstrates decreasing supply and/or increasing demand.
If DoM is below a market's long term average, this can be a leading indicator over time for positive price growth.

DoM is just one of many metrics we use to assess short and long term price movement.

12 May. 7:30pm. Negative gearing reform was announced and investor conversations have been running ever since.

Before reacting to headlines or waiting for “clarity,” here’s what actually changed in practical terms:
- Existing property owners remain grandfathered. Full negative gearing continues until disposal.
- Established property purchased before 1 July 2027 retains access to negative gearing during the transition period.
- Established property purchased after 1 July 2027 will no longer allow negative gearing against salary income. Losses instead carry forward against future residential income or CGT on disposal.
- Newly constructed residential property retains negative gearing regardless of purchase timing.
- SMSFs remain untouched.
- Commercial property remains untouched.
That’s the reform.

This coming week we’ll continue unpacking what the changes actually mean for long-term investment strategy, including one of the most overlooked points: the losses don’t disappear, they relocate.

This month we’re focusing on the trending unemployment rate.
Monitoring the percentage of a market that is unemployed is a key indicator of whether the local population will be able to afford purchasing in their market.

An increasing unemployment rate can mean that the population will not be in a position to be purchasing housing, therefore decreasing demand, and ultimately softening prices. The converse is also true - a decreasing unemployment rate will mean that the population is broadly feeling more financially secure, which will increase buying demand.

The unemployment rate is just one of many metrics we use to assess short and long term price movement.

One of the biggest misconceptions in this week’s commentary is that Australia is entering completely unknown territory with negative gearing reform.
Historically, that isn’t true.

In July 1985, the Hawke–Keating Government removed negative gearing entirely. The policy justification at the time closely mirrors the language used throughout the current reform discussions: reducing wage-offset benefits for higher income earners and redirecting investment toward housing supply.

What followed was significant:
• Investor participation declined rapidly.
• Vacancy rates tightened across major capital cities.
• Rental prices increased sharply, rising between 17% and 31% across the capitals within two years.

The policy was ultimately reversed within 26 months after rental market pressures and cost-of-living impacts became politically difficult to sustain.

Importantly, residential property prices did not collapse during this period. Between 1985 and 1990, median house prices across the combined capitals increased by 75.59%.

Investors who maintained long-term positions participated fully in the recovery cycle. Those who exited during uncertainty generally did not.

This month we’re focusing on the trending Vacancy Rate (VR).

The vacancy rate monitors the balance of supply and demand in the rental market, which can be a precursor to positive or negative price growth.

An increasing VR demonstrates a surplus of supply and/or a lack of population to absorb the supply. The converse is also true - a decreasing vacancy rate signals insufficient stock that the population is rapidly absorbing. This trend will eventually make its way into the buying/selling market.

VR is just one of many metrics we use to assess short and long term price movement.

𝗬𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗱𝗲𝗱𝘂𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗱𝗶𝗱𝗻’𝘁 𝗱𝗶𝘀𝗮𝗽𝗽𝗲𝗮𝗿. 𝗜𝘁 𝗺𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗱.

One of the most common reactions from investors this week has been:
“I’ve lost the tax break.”

In reality, the deduction hasn’t disappeared. The mechanism for using it has changed.

Under the proposed rules, losses on established residential property purchased after 1 July 2027 can still be applied in several ways:
• Offset against positively geared residential property within a portfolio
• Carried forward against future rental income once the property becomes positively geared
• Carried forward against CGT on future residential property disposals

A simple example from our research division highlights the point:

One property produces +$24,000 in income. Another records a $16,000 loss.

Under the old rules, the loss offsets salary income. Under the proposed rules, it offsets the positively geared property income instead.

Net tax outcome? Identical.

The deduction still exists. It has simply shifted from one income source to another.

For investors with a well-structured portfolio, the practical impact may be materially different from the public narrative.
