The federal government's proposed changes to negative gearing and capital gains tax have already reshaped the property investment landscape. Now, attention is turning to self-managed super funds (SMSF), with the Greens calling for tighter rules around SMSF property investment as part of the broader housing affordability debate. Broker Daily's senior journalist Julian Barnes is joined by Finni's Eva Loisance and Costa Arvanitopoulos to unpack the growing focus on SMSFs, what the proposed changes could mean for investors, and whether alternative ownership structures are becoming more attractive in the post-budget environment. Note this episode was recorded just before the confirmation that the government had struck a deal with the Greens to support the banning of limited recourse borrowing arrangements (LRBAs) for residential property by superannuation funds. Read more about that here. The trio also discuss lender responses to the reforms, shifting investor behaviour, and the broader implications for brokers navigating one of the biggest shake-ups to Australia's property tax system in decades.
