So its finally leaked. Neg gearing "may" be limited to new housing. Retrospective or from budget night?
Who wants to predict what effect this could have on existing / old homes, units, factories etc. Which taxpayers stand to win / lose. What might this do to prices, rents ??
I would imagine it may trigger a two tier market. New property would be valued highly by negative gearing investors v's property that cant be geared. Price for new housing rise. Old properties may fall?? How could that look ?
Could it also apply to a SMSF ?
What about a business that rents loads of properties ? ie nine properties and 3 are negative and others positive ?
I would argue that if I were property investor with a contract signed I would want exchange unconditional by budget night. And I bet more than a few investors who might not like Saul Estlakes view.
