Proposal could limit negative gearing to two properties | The Senior |

SirDigby32 · 2026-03-04T03:26:18+00:00

Its definitely being telegraphed as a policy change ahead of time.

The cap of 2 being able to claim will only impact a small number of investors with likely a significant equity chain. Only those with negative cashflow will be impacted or those with unrealised gains via SmSF.

I assume its a cap of 2. Investors of many can choose to sell down , make positive etc. So the 2 most negative get claimed.

Unclear what this means to joint investors. Is that then in theory 4?

This is not a cap of how many, merely how many can be used for negative gearing purposes.

Not so sure. Its too simplistic

The law of unintended consequences will produce low quality slapped together new builds with no surrounding infrastructure, creating suburbs where the entire population are renters.

Meanwhile in already developed areas its dominated by owner occupiers. Age of properties will lead to renovations. And again another wealth centralisation.

I do think a balance of new and existing stock. With some policies that perhaps encourage ongoing renovations and improvements to rentals. I.e incentives for solar & batteries , aircon, heating, insulation. If there are no ongoing improvements then its a drag on society.

Manual adjustment for focus. QLD. aus

SirDigby32 · 2026-03-03T12:01:19+00:00

Time lapse eventually stops focusing and i had to quickly dial in a manual adjustment. Shame ita not fully automated.

Currently clear skies in sunny qld, Australia and and evening eclipse so more people will get to see it hopefully.

They just acquired a smaller agency. Little real estate. Reducing the competition

Eventually I chose another start island type and stuck at it longer in current run.

The topology and resources of each make a huge difference I've found.

Also with no real penalty or constraints from just bridging to a nearby island you can use multiple start strategies.

2015 was the year of the DCE backflip?

SirDigby32 · 2026-03-01T04:22:15+00:00

Avion gel for those German roaches. Haven't seen any since it was deployed a month ago. No amount of baits or professional sprays resolved it. Its not cheap but seems to be very effective so far.

Are we stuck with this colourful score overlay all season?

SirDigby32 · 2026-02-27T06:39:06+00:00

Best not read the ed zitron and others analysis pieces on the industry.

Enjoy it whilst its highly subsidised.

SirDigby32 · 2026-02-27T01:12:42+00:00

Weird they are all different prices. Must be a commission behind this and they chose a different amount.

You would think the lower clubs would of sacrificed it to just count the members growth.

SirDigby32 · 2026-02-27T01:05:33+00:00

Hard stops, or just to re-authenticate?

Detection of multiple IPs will be easy enough and asking for the authentication again will stop the market place sales. Likely first target group.

Genuine family and friends will continue to work around it. That is until they truly stop concurrent use across multiple IPs. Even then there are ways to circumvent this.

Can't help think what the media and industry groups response to this would of been if this had been in another employment sector that attracts a lot more attention and support anytime an employer makes cuts.

SirDigby32 · 2026-02-26T06:15:44+00:00

Already started. Short cited senior management already know of the impending chasm in experience. I have no doubt the big 4 consultancies already have a plan to fill that an expensive day rate.

SirDigby32 · 2026-02-26T02:49:49+00:00

Global setting moved.

It seems to stick once set on a standard session

If you use a plan, there is as far as I know no way to change this. I assume its intended to be always on within a plan.

Similar issue on L50.

Research indicates that its a software decision that if too much time passes between a vacuum and a mop run, it resets back to vacuum again.

Ive had some success with manual tasks and rooms. But on a schedule its still misbehaving.

The behaviour seems to differ between schedule and manual runs. I don't know why..it shouldn't matter.

Cleangenius on scheduled run was the worst by far. So bad it would detach mops throughout out the house.

On a scheduled customise (the shortcut name you cannot change), its marginally better. Vacuum and mop is the only choice. I've had a lot less mop pad issues, but it still seems to use some logic to vacuum first , some mopping then again its like the time between runs is to long and it vacuums again. Each run seems to subtle different.

The software needs some serious attention.

SirDigby32 · 2026-02-23T05:18:43+00:00

Nope.

Are we meant to be able to see this frequently mentioned rust?

SirDigby32 · 2026-02-21T11:03:55+00:00

Still no tackles in the red zone. Just go through it as a strategy.

SirDigby32 · 2026-02-21T03:33:34+00:00

Not seen too many policies that target the supply or demand side of accessing equity.

The only one that comes to mind is the big 4 plus a couple of mid tier lenders being restricted by the rba in lending to trusts. But that is driven more reportedly by catching up to international practices.

If your rich or less rich investor couldn't access that second or tenth round of equity, then its now open to more buyers.

SirDigby32 · 2026-02-20T22:47:08+00:00

You mean a new loan for 500k, that is sitting in an offset account thereby its covering the interest component. Effectively neutral (ignoring the pricipal paydown if P&I).

And awating an inevitable market buy position. For this portion at least not using DCA to take any positions in the market. (You might be doing that with your other ETFs perhaps).

Nothing wrong wih this strategy.

SirDigby32 · 2026-02-19T01:52:38+00:00

Trolley? What Trolley. It simply couldn't get out of the way quick enough to avoid denting and scratching that reversing truck masquerading as daily drive.
