They explain the shift from the 50% CGT discount toward inflation indexation from 1 July 2027, with gains before that date effectively grandfathered and calculated via ATO pro‑rating or a 30 June 2027 market valuation. They highlight a new minimum 30% tax on capital gains and trust distributions, which they argue hits lower-income earners harder and reduces the benefits of trusts. On negative gearing, they discuss restricting deductions to new builds while grandfathering existing holdings, potentially diverting investment to house-and-land and apartments, reducing rentals in established suburbs, and lowering borrowing capacity. They suggest reviewing structures (personal vs company) and seeking tailored accounting advice. ## Actions - request_transcript: `POST https://stenobird.com/v1/public/podcasts/the-perth-property-show-1154125/episodes/391-capital-gains-negative-gearing-budget-review-ft-carlo-bordi/transcription-requests` — Idempotently request low-priority transcript generation for this episode. - read_markdown: `GET https://stenobird.com/podcast/the-perth-property-show-1154125/391-capital-gains-negative-gearing-budget-review-ft-carlo-bordi.md` — Read the agent-friendly Markdown representation of this episode resource.
