No more property investing.

If investing/trading in residential/commercial property was banned, what would you do?
This is assuming you could only hold a single PPOR per household.
What's your plan for financial freedom now?

Geez what an outlandish situation, the economy could not function....this would mean there wouldn't be any REITs even? Rather than be banned, which is inconceivable, perhaps you mean that Neg gearing on resi property was abolished and losses must carry forward?

In any case, I'd do what I do now. Focus on private business generating strong cash flow, and reinvest in domestic and international equities for the long term. Probably continue to upgrade PPOR too, CGT free asset.

Identity fraud and take over your business

More monies ploughed into shares/managed trusts/ETF's.

Increase tenants rents.

 

[Ace in the Hole]

Increase tenants rents.

What tenants?

 

[joanmc]

Shares, personal business, drugs?

What did they do in Communist countries?

Start your own business and invest in other businesses (aka shares)

Already doing that nowadays. No more real estate investments for me.

I would invest in one unique primary residence with good growth prospects with view to sell after a period of time and downsize and invest in shares to live off income.

 

[joanmc]

Rent rooms on the black market as I assume that one would be created. Seems to with everything else that gets banned.

They just take them. Friends wife is from Venezuela, her uncle lost a few properties to Ch?vez.

Id look at the Bali 9 business model and improve on it, potential for some serious cash returns!

The government or companies own them, as is common in many countries.
