That means big cuts to deductions like mortgage interest and repairs, unless you actually rent it during peak times like Christmas and Easter. With negative gearing rules tightening too, this could slash the appeal of holiday homes as investments, pushing many owners to sell—and possibly creating opportunities for first-time buyers. If you own a second home, now’s the time to act. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
