What I'd Actually Buy Right Now (And What I'd Never Touch Again) part 1

03/06/2026

With investors fleeing second hand property after the recent budget, prices could go one of two very different directions. Here is what the data is telling us and where the smart money is moving.

Property values are about to split in two directions, and which side you're on will depend entirely on what you own.

Investors holding second hand properties are facing the full capital gains tax rate, no negative gearing, and holding costs that could triple. Most will sell. That flood of stock could push second hand values down, though owner occupiers moving in to fill the gap may prop prices up. It's too early to call.

New property is a different story. Demand for land is rising fast, and when that happens, construction costs follow. If you're looking to buy new, move before those increases hit. Lock in a fixed price contract now.

Forget everything you thought you knew about property investing — the budget has changed the rules, and there are now only a handful of assets worth buying if you want to stay cash flow positive.

Here is what I would buy right now, and what I would avoid completely.

Second hand property is off the table unless you are renovating to flip quickly or developing straight away. Holding costs after the budget changes will be too high.

For investment, go new and go high yield. A standard four bedroom home in a capital city will not be cash flow positive right now. You need multiple tenancies under one roof.

Duplexes let you sell one side to pay down the other. Dual key properties yield 6 to 8 percent. Co-living or rooming houses can bring in $1,500 per week on a five bedroom property, comfortably cash flow positive.

NDIS housing looks great on paper but I have seen too many sit empty or underperform. Avoid it.

Shares have gone through the same tax changes as property, so they offer no advantage. The one asset class that stands above everything right now is brand new property, which is exactly where the government wants investment to go.

If you'd like to discuss any of this further, feel free to reach out to the office. I'd love to have a chat.
