Well, this was a pretty lovely email to open.

NextLevel Property has been named a Finalist in the Property Services category of the 2026 Australian Professionals Small Business Champion Awards.

And yes, I’m pretty excited about this one.

There were entries from businesses all over Australia, so to have NextLevel Property recognised amongst them really does mean a lot.

This business has taken a huge amount of work, persistence, problem solving and plenty of long days, but I absolutely love what I do.

Every client I help, every property journey I’m part of and every little win along the way reminds me why I started NextLevel Property in the first place.

So I’m going to enjoy this moment.

And apparently prepare myself for another awards night.

Wish me luck!

Well, that’s a wrap.

Just finished The New Rules of Property Investing webinar with Michael Watson and I have to say, I loved this one.

Good conversation. Great questions. Plenty of myth-busting. And some really useful takeaways for investors trying to work out what on earth is going on right now.

We’ll share a few of the best bits over the coming days.

And if you missed it, don’t panic. The recording is coming.

Thanks to everyone who joined us tonight. I hope we helped make things a little clearer.

It’s happening TONIGHT.

There’s so much noise around property right now.

Government changes. Backflips. Mixed messages. Plenty of uncertainty.

But while everyone is focused on what’s changing, one thing hasn’t changed.

Australia still needs more housing.

We’re not building enough, demand is still there and with so many investors sitting on the sidelines, I’m actually seeing some very interesting opportunities with builders and developers.

Better pricing. Incentives. More room to negotiate.

So tonight, accountant Michael Watson and I are cutting through the noise in:

The New Rules of Property Investing

We’ll be talking about negative gearing, capital gains tax, new versus established property, ownership structures and what investors should actually be thinking about right now.

And yes, there’ll be a live Q&A, so bring your questions.

Tonight, Tuesday 13 October
7.00pm

Everyone's talking about why NOT to invest in property right now. But are we looking at this the wrong way?

Government changes, backflips, mixed messages and uncertainty. It's enough to make anyone think twice about investing!

But while everyone's focused on what's changing, we're overlooking something that hasn't changed.

Australia has a housing shortage, we're not building enough homes, and demand for housing isn't going away.

And here's the interesting part.

With many investors sitting on the sidelines, there may actually be opportunities to negotiate better prices, secure incentives and get more value for your money.

The question isn't whether property investing still makes sense. It's whether you understand the market well enough to make an informed decision.

That's exactly why I'm hosting The New Rules of Property Investing with accountant Michael Watson.

Join us TOMORROW, Tuesday 13 October at 7pm, as we unpack the changes, separate fact from fiction and explore where the opportunities may lie.

And bring your questions! We want you to walk away with clarity, not more confusion.

Don't let the headlines make your investment decisions for you.

Confused by all the changes around property investing?

If you’re trying to work out what the latest capital gains tax changes mean, where negative gearing now applies, what structure you should be buying your next investment in, or you’re simply worried about where the property market is heading, this webinar is for you.

On Tuesday 13 October at 7pm, I’ll be joined by accountant Michael Watson for:

The New Rules of Property Investing

We’re going to unpack:
- Negative gearing and what the changes could mean
- Capital gains tax and the options available
- Buying new versus established
- Ownership structures and trusts
- What investors should be thinking about now
- Where new property fits into the picture
- What I’m seeing with builders, developers, pricing and incentives

And importantly, there’ll be a live Q&A so you can ask the questions that matter to your own situation.

The aim is simple. Cut through the noise, get clear on what has changed and help you understand your options.

What a morning.

After much preparation, bump in, rehearsal and review of script, today was about one thing, focus. While the audience was here to learn about influence, I was in full FOCUS mode.

As my first time emceeing an event, I wanted to do the job well and do the extraordinary panel of speakers justice.

A warm group of people were here to listen and learn. Business owners, entrepreneurs, they were already in the world of influence and they came here to take it to another level.

Personally I found myself taking in so much from each speaker and found myself thinking about how I could bring those messages back into the room, reaffirming the lessons from each presenter whilst keep everything flowing.

There wasn’t really time to stop and think, “How am I going?”

It was just focus. Business. Get it done properly.

The speakers were amazing, sharing their insights and the audience was equally receptive. From the feedback, I know this was an event that they valued. And just like that it was all over.

Job done, bump out, and off for lunch to connect with some of the people in the room. That's when I felt the exhilaration.

I haven’t used that word in a long time, but that’s exactly how it felt.

The feedback I received afterwards reflected what I was hoping to achieve. It meant a lot to me, because this is absolutely something I want to do more of.

More emcee work. More keynote speaking. More time on stage. More opportunities to share my story or help others share theirs.

I love being in an environment, connecting with people, working with speakers and helping bring an event together, so that their stories, their experience can be heard; and so they can inspire.

So yes, this is an area I’m going to keep building.

And if today was anything to go by, I’m pretty excited about where it could lead. Watch this space!

I keep getting asked the same thing at the moment:
“Maria, with all these changes, is property still worth it?”

And the answer is not a simple yes or no.

It depends on what you’re buying, how you’re buying it, what structure you’re using and what you’re actually trying to achieve.

That’s why I wanted to bring accountant Michael Watson into this conversation.
Next Tuesday, we’re going to unpack the stuff investors are actually asking about right now, without making it more complicated than it needs to be.

What do the tax changes really mean?
Does buying new still make sense?
How should you think about ownership structures?
And what should you be looking at before making your next move?

I’ll also be sharing what I’m seeing in the market right now and where I believe investors need to be a little more strategic.

While many are taking a well-earned break this long weekend, I’m spending some time doing one of my favourite parts of what I do… helping a client work out what’s next.

Following a review of their property, we’re looking at the bigger picture. Where they are today, how their investment is performing, their current life situation, the other assets they hold and how all of these pieces can work together to help them continue building their financial position.

Because buying a property is only one part of the journey.

As they move closer to retirement, the strategy becomes even more important. What do they already have? What’s working? What opportunities do they have? And what are the right next steps to keep moving towards the lifestyle and financial freedom they ultimately want?

Sometimes the answer is another property. Sometimes it’s about making better use of what you already have.

For me, it’s never about simply collecting properties. Every decision needs a purpose and every property needs to play its part in the bigger plan.

That’s what property strategy is really about.

Making sure every move takes them closer to the life they want.

There has been so much change around property investing lately, and if you’re feeling a little confused by it all, you’re definitely not alone.

Negative gearing.
Capital gains tax.
Trust structures.
Buying new versus established.
What still works.
What has changed.

That’s exactly why I’m bringing accountant Michael Watson back for this webinar.

We’re going to strip it all back, explain what the changes actually mean and talk through what investors should be thinking about now.

No fluff. No scare tactics. Just practical information so you can make better decisions.
