The 2026 Federal Budget changed the rules for property investors, and the date to remember is 7:30 pm on 12 May 2026.

From 1 July 2027, if you buy an established rental property after that time, rental losses can no longer reduce the tax on your salary. Those losses can only be used against rental income from other properties, or against the capital gain when you sell.

The good news:

If you already owned the property, or were under contract, by that time, nothing changes. Your current tax treatment continues.

Newly built properties are fully exempt. Negative gearing and the 50 percent CGT discount both stay.

If you are weighing up a purchase, or already own a rental, the timing and structure of that decision now matter more than they used to. It is worth thinking through before you commit.

A common CGT misconception: the 12-month rule starts at settlement. It does not. It starts at the contract date.

Holding an asset for more than 12 months from the contract date halves the assessable capital gain for individuals. Selling a few days too early can cost you the discount.

This will change from 01/07/2027.

If you own an investment property, shares, or crypto, here is a change worth knowing about.

From 1 July 2027, capital gains tax is changing. The 50 per cent discount most people know is being replaced. Instead, your discount will be based on inflation, so you are only taxed on your real gain, and a minimum tax rate of 30 per cent will apply.

The important part: it only affects gains made after 1 July 2027. Anything you have built up before then is still worked out under the current rules. So there is no need to rush, but there is real value in planning ahead.

Tax changes like this can feel overwhelming, and you do not have to work them out alone. There is a lot more in this budget to talk through, and how it affects you depends on your situation.

A new financial year begins tomorrow. For people building wealth, the choices that shape your tax outcome happen across the whole year, not at the end of it.

Super contributions work better when planned across the full twelve months.
CGT outcomes depend on when you sell, not only what you sell.
Records kept from day one save real money at tax time.

The next twelve months are where it counts.
