But it's definitely a very popular reason for new investors to get into the market.
It does allow residential property to be
profitable or not profitable, but to generate a return in the short term, particularly in an environment where we do have extremely low yields and we also have, you know, and most investors are relying on capital growth.
Yeah, again, we don't know exactly, but it will force more people.
I mean, we'll push more people into the new home market, which I don't think is necessarily a bad thing.
I think, though, what would have been a better option is to keep negative gearing as is and then provide some additional incentive to get more people investing in new homes.
Well, the weakness is that, I mean, again, we don't know exactly what they're proposing.
The worry we have is around what will happen to rental stock.
And we know already that rental availability is very tight in many markets.
If we have fewer investors, there are going to be fewer rental properties, 100%.
That's the way the calculation works.
The other side of it that we are concerned about, I mean, there's a lot of concerns, but there's another one around younger people.
We know a lot of young people getting into the market, particularly markets like Sydney, need to rely on things like rent vesting to get into the market.
So, you know, there's a lot of talk about intergenerational fairness that young
If younger investors are locked out of negative gearing, then there's a path to wealth and a path even potentially to home ownership that is blocked for them that older generations are able to take advantage of.
So that's a concern.
Another one would be around who steps in.
Obviously, someone has to provide rental housing.
If you have a look in the U.S.,
when there was a wholesale reduction in investor activity, that's where private equity stepped in, which I think we have discussed before.
