🏡 As an investment property owner, you may have claimed something just because everyone else does it or thought that you're covered just because it's labelled 'investment property'. Having a rental or investment property has been considered a reliable way to earn extra income. However, the ATO have taken notice of some grey areas these property owners may have taken advantage of.

📑 Updates to the TR 2025/D1 helps to break down what really counts as rental income and creates a greater understanding for what you can claim as a deduction. The ATO is now focusing on how these properties are used, and mixed-use properties now face higher scrutiny if rules aren't followed.

What's the difference between traditional and digital marketing? 🤔

📰 Traditional marketing relies on more physical forms of media such as newspapers, radio, billboards, local promotions, etc. This sort of marketing can give your business a broader reach, and can build credibility through familiarity, and creates recognition with brand repetition. However, you may find it harder to measure results of success and it can be difficult to target your preferred audience.

📱 Digital marketing pushes your business through mediums like social media, websites, and email. This type of marketing gives you the ability to push your ads towards your target audience, you also have access to real time tracking of data and ad performance. Reaching the right people at the right moment, with options to be flexible to suit your business needs. However, it requires ongoing optimisation, and can be a noisy and competitive market.

🏘️ Are property investors worse off following the 2026-27 Federal Budget?

😵‍💫 Understanding what the R&D tax incentives program means can be confusing. You don't work in a lab or your work isn't 'scientific' enough, so you shouldn't qualify. You already know how to do your projects so it's not experimental, and the tax incentives are too complex to understand so why bother.

🔬 However, the R&D tax incentives program is for any business that solves technical problems, not just for labs. If the outcomes of your work can't be known in advance it could qualify; hypothesis → testing → experimentation → evaluation.

Industry doesn't matter, if you do the work, you may qualify ➡️ https://bit.ly/4nwuI31
