   Why New Builds Are a Trap After the Budget

   With proposed changes to negative gearing dominating headlines, new-build property marketing is everywhere. But does a tax benefit automatically make a property a good investment? In this episode, Lachlan Vidler from Atlas Property Group breaks down why he believes many investors are being sold the wrong asset for the wrong reasons. He explains why negative gearing has never been an investment strategy, examines the risks associated with new-build properties, and outlines how factors such as oversupply, valuation shortfalls, limited resale demand, and poor portfolio scalability can impact long-term wealth creation. Whether you're buying your first investment property or looking to grow an existing portfolio, this episode provides a framework for assessing property fundamentals beyond the latest tax policy changes. Key Topics (00:00) Why new-build marketing has exploded following the proposed negative gearing changes (08:51) Negative gearing explained: why it's an outcome, not an investment strategy (12:38) The fundamental flaws of many new-build investments: land value, valuations and replacement costs (19:59) Oversupply, estate development and why demand matters more than tax incentives (23:49) The hidden exit problem: resale challenges, equity growth and portfolio stagnation (31:23) The key takeaway for investors: focus on asset quality, long-term fundamentals and portfolio growth To Get in Touch with Lachlan at Atlas Property Group: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://atlaspropertygroup.com.au/book-now/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ https://www.instagram.com/lachlan.vidler/ About the Show Host of the show, Lachlan Vidler, unpacks insights into the Australian property market, property portfolio building and property investment strategies, along with detailed market analysis on locations across the country.

   The Property Strategy Most Investors Have Never Considered

   In this episode of Property Investment Australia, Lachlan Vidler breaks down the growing surge in SMSF (self-managed super fund) property investing and why more Australians are turning to super as a way to build wealth and expand their property portfolios. Lachlan explains how recent budget changes have increased interest in SMSF investing, why leverage inside super can dramatically change long-term outcomes, and the different investor types who may benefit from this strategy. He also walks through real-world examples comparing leveraged property investing versus traditional super fund investing, while highlighting the risks, rules, and common mistakes investors need to understand. Whether you’re an owner occupier who feels tapped out, an active investor who’s hit a borrowing ceiling, or someone simply wanting more control over your retirement strategy, this episode explores why SMSF property investing is becoming one of the biggest conversations in Australian property right now.
