  With tax season just around the corner and property investors constantly navigating a shifting taxation landscape, it’s never been more important to stay one step ahead of the taxman. Whether you’re a seasoned investor with a sizable portfolio or just starting out with your first rental, the rules are changing—and some of these changes are flying under the radar. In today’s episode of the Michael Yardney Podcast, I’m joined by my business partner, Ken Raiss, Director of Metropole Wealth Advisory and one of Australia's leading property tax strategists. Ken's got his finger on the pulse of what’s really happening behind the scenes with the ATO—and he’s here to share how recent tax changes could hit your hip pocket. This episode serves as a guide for investors to navigate the challenges of property investment while maximising their wealth.     Takeaways  The ATO is increasingly using technology for tax compliance. Property investors must be aware of recent tax changes. State taxes significantly impact property costs. Investors often overlook the importance of record-keeping. Common mistakes include misclassifying personal expenses as investment-related. Strategic advisors can provide valuable insights for property investors. Trust structures require careful setup to avoid tax issues. Joint ownership can lead to complications in property management. Understanding tax compliance is crucial for long-term investment success. There is no such thing as 'later' in achieving success.   Chapters  00:00 Navigating the Tax Landscape for Property Investors 01:47 Understanding Recent Tax Changes and Compliance Risks 09:42 Challenges for Property Investors 24:03 Challenges with Family Property 29:20 Investor Mistakes 36:22 Introduction to Property Wealth Strategies 38:01 Michael's Mindset Message   Links and Resources: Michael Yardney Get the team at Metropole to help build your personal Strategic Property Plan.

  The election already feels like old news. The campaign ads are off the air, the polling booths are packed away, and the headlines have moved on to the next big story. But make no mistake—what happened at the ballot box is going to shape our property markets for years to come. In this episode of the Michael Yardney Podcast, we unpack exactly what the recent election results mean for you as a property investor, homeowner, or aspiring buyer. After Wealth Retreat a couple of weeks ago Brett Warren, National Director of Property at Metropole, took demographer Simon Kuestenmacher and me aside and we had a conversation about what the election outcome and what this tells us about the direction of housing policy, population growth, infrastructure, and the property investment landscape.   Takeaways    ·         The outcome of recent political shifts will significantly influence property markets. ·         Government schemes may boost short-term demand but worsen long-term affordability. ·         Demographic shifts and immigration are critical factors in housing demand. ·         There is a critical shortage of tradespeople affecting housing supply. ·         Investors play a vital role in providing rental accommodation. ·         The second half of the year may present opportunities for savvy investors. ·         Current policies may not lead to substantial changes in housing availability. ·         The need for skilled labor is urgent in the construction industry. ·         Local councils play a crucial role in housing development decisions. ·         A balanced mindset is essential for long-term success in life and investment.   Chapters  00:00 Policy Changes and Real Estate Implications 03:02 Government Policies and Housing Demand 05:57 Demographics and Migration Impact on Housing 09:02 Supply Challenges in the Housing Market 11:59 The Need for Skilled Labor and Training 15:07 Investor Perspectives and Market Opportunities 17:59 Future Outlook for Property Investors 21:49 Mindset and Life Balance   Links and Resources:   Michael Yardney   Get the team at Metropole to help build your personal Strategic Property Plan Click here and have a chat with us    Brett Warren – National Director Property – Metropole   Simon Kuestenmacher – co founder of the Demographics Group   Get a bundle of eBooks and Reports at www.PodcastBonus.com.au     Also, please subscribe to my new podcast Demographics Decoded with Simon Kuestenmacher – just look for Demographics Decoded wherever you are listening to this podcast and subscribe so each week we can unveil the trends shaping your future.

• The Upside of Upmarkets: Winners and Losers in the Property Game? With Simon Kuestenmacher

  In today show Simon Kuestenmacher and I discuss a topic that won’t stay out of the news this year with the federal election coming up — house prices. Whether they’re climbing to new heights or stabilising, the property market has ripple effects that impact us all. But here’s the big question we discuss today: When house prices are high, are there more winners or losers? Takeaways ·        The Australian housing market has historically created more winners than losers. ·        Government policies often favor those already owning property, making it harder for first-time home buyers. ·        High property prices benefit a wide range of stakeholders, including banks and developers. ·        First home buyer grants tend to inadvertently drive up house prices. ·        Younger voters are increasingly disillusioned with major political parties due to housing policies. ·        The widening wealth gap is creating social unrest among younger generations. ·        Immigration policies need to be re-evaluated to ensure housing affordability for all. ·        Political parties must balance the interests of homeowners and renters to maintain stability. ·        There is a need for more transparent discussions about housing affordability. ·        The future of housing affordability will depend on effective government action and policy changes.

• Unveiling the Truth: What the Financial Media Doesn't Share About Property Investing With Brett Warren

  When it comes to property investing, the noise from the financial media can be deafening. But how much of what they say is really worth your attention? There are many commonly held beliefs about property investing that aren’t only questionable but are also utterly false. Sadly, some investors go through their entire property journey believing them. And that’s a shame. They waste precious time buying the wrong property or using faulty strategies because they listened to bad advice. So in today’s show Brett Warren and I discuss the myths perpetuated by financial media, and the role of property investors in the Australian economy.     Takeaways  The financial media often misrepresents property investment. Investors are typically everyday people, not greedy. Property investment requires a long-term perspective. Cash flow is important, but capital growth is essential. A strategic plan is crucial for successful investing. Fear-based media can hinder investment decisions. Independent advice is valuable and often necessary. Understanding market cycles is vital for investors. Experience in property investment is irreplaceable.   Chapters  00:00 The Role of Property Investors in Australia 07:31 Understanding Property Cycles and Long-Term Investing 14:06 The Importance of a Strategic Plan 19:43 Navigating the Media Landscape 25:17 The Value of Experience and Mentorship 29:11 The Importance of Preparedness 31:49 Embracing Uncertainty and Opportunity   Links and Resources: Michael Yardney   Get the team at Metropole to help build your personal Strategic Property Plan Click here and have a chat with us   Brett Warren - National Director of Property at Metropole   Get a bundle of eBooks and Reports at www.PodcastBonus.com.au    Also, please subscribe to my other podcast Demographics Decoded with Simon Kuestenmacher – just look for  Demographics Decoded wherever you are listening to this podcast and subscribe so each week we can unveil the trends shaping your future.
