Ringfencing – What Investors Need to Know | Ep. 147

In this episode, we discuss ringfencing, what it is and how property investors can combat these recent tax changes.  From April 2019 property investors haven't been able to claim rental property losses against their income. Previously investors were able to claim a tax refund on any losses made by their rental property. That meant that if the property was negatively geared the tax could make it cheaper to own a rental property.  This is no longer the case, which means that owning negatively geared investment properties are more expensive.  Investors have three options to combat these higher costs: a) invest in positively geared properties, b) increase the rent charged on the rental properties, or c) attempt to decrease expenses by restructuring and refinance investment debt. We also mention the Epic Guide to Property Investment. This is 16,000-word guide that teaches you the fundamentals of how to invest in property.
