It's amazing how Australia has had the second highest population growth over last 40 years even before the massive immigration over the last 4 years!

It's amazing how Australia has had the second highest population growth over last 40 years even before the massive immigration over the last 4 years!

It tells me that even pre-COVID higher immigration was the norm for Australia compared to other countries.

It’s hard to see how this super long term trend can be stopped given our economic dependence on it. And therefore it’s hard to see how house prices won’t be double over the next 10-20 years.

Don’t make long term decision (or inaction) based on short term fluctuations.

😟 Good luck getting ahead from just your salary these days!

The Australian economy is becoming less productive and going backwards on efficiency of labour, the Organisation for Co-operation and Development has found

This means salaries are less likely to keep up with inflation.

For most people, this means the only way to secure their financial future is to invest their hard earned money into assets that grow faster than they can earn, eg well placed affordable real estate.

Is buying brand new really worth it? Matusik research says the average house & land package in South East QLD is now over $1.1m Yes, you can still negatively gear new properties. But is a property with 4% yield that costs over $1.1m on 275sqm of land really a good investment?

If you put $100 into ASX mining stocks at the start of the year, that would be worth $146. If you’d invested the same amount in technology stocks instead, you would be down to $63 - an $83 difference. What are you investing in?

Are residential property investors in Australia being sold a ‘lie’ that depreciation on new builds is essentially a tax deduction that comes at no cost? Are these investors aware that the accumulated depreciation when selling has to be deducted against the cost base of the property?

It appears that many industry professionals promote the advantages of depreciation on new builds but very often it appears to me that they don’t go on to say that these initial tax deductions come at a cost. That is the deduction for depreciation is essentially ‘paid’ for by the investor upon the sale of the property when the cost base of the property is reduced by the amount of the depreciation. This is turn increases the capital gains tax payable by the investor on the sale.

Where are the most likely places to find asbestos in a house?

In Australia, the peak period for asbestos construction materials was from the 1940s to the mid-1980s.

Common locations and uses include:

  • Roofing: Corrugated roofing sheets and tiles.
  • External Walls: Fibro/cement cladding boards.
  • Wet Areas: Wall linings in bathrooms, kitchens, and laundries.
  • Piping: Downpipes and ventilation flues.
  • Flooring: Vinyl floor tile underlay.
  • Ceilings & Attics: Ceiling panels or insulation layers (sometimes loose-fill asbestos).

Among these, loose-fill asbestos is the most dangerous form. During the 1960s and 1970s, it was installed in the roof spaces of some homes under the brand name "Mr Fluffy", particularly across NSW and the ACT. Additionally, please note that even houses built after 1985 might still contain asbestos if leftover old stock materials were used.

How big of a deal is this?

Residential property inside SMSFs represents roughly 2-3% of the total value of Australia's housing stock.
So while SMSFs receive a lot of attention, they are still a relatively small part of the residential investment market.
