Australia already isn't building enough homes. So what happens when a housing tax reform is forecast to result in 35,000 fewer houses being constructed?

That's the issue Andrew Bragg zeroes in on in this clip, arguing that deliberately reducing housing supply is difficult to reconcile with a government trying to solve an affordability crisis.

The bigger question is whether the policy settings are actually encouraging the construction Australia needs—or creating another barrier to supply.

What happens when a major property policy changes—but the people making the rules haven't properly considered how investors will respond?

Chris points out how quickly brokers and buyers' agents pivoted towards SMSF lending after the Budget changes. Andrew Bragg pushes back on the idea that the two policies were necessarily linked, arguing that the SMSF restrictions weren't properly analysed before being introduced.

Veronica takes it one step further: does the government actually understand how Australia's property market works?
It's a sharp exchange—and one that raises a bigger question about how housing policy gets designed.

Australia's housing crisis is real. But does changing the tax treatment of property investors actually make housing more affordable?

Or does it simply change who owns the existing homes?

In this episode, Veronica and Chris put that question to Andrew Bragg, challenging both the government's approach and the alternatives being proposed.

Because if the real problem is a shortage of housing, shouldn't the focus be on getting more homes built?

Finding a potential development deal can trigger a completely different set of emotions.

After waiting and analysing opportunity after opportunity, suddenly there's one in front of you — and the temptation is to convince yourself that this has to be the one.

In this episode, Michael Tiemens argues that patience and the ability to walk away are skills investors need to develop before the right opportunity appears. Being "market ready" isn't enough. You also need to be mindset ready to act when the numbers genuinely stack up.

A property deal doesn't become a good deal just because you want it to work. Michael's rule of thumb is confronting: 95% of deals out there don't work and shouldn't be done.

And even when a project initially stacks up, the numbers can change once you're already committed. Values can move, costs can shift, and the market doesn't care what your original feasibility looked like.

That's why having an objective framework — and the discipline to walk away — matters just as much as finding the opportunity in the first place.

You can have the right development strategy, the right renovation plan and the right exit strategy — but if you pay too much at the beginning, you're already fighting uphill.

Michael Tiemens explains why the biggest profits he's made have come from getting the buy price right, rather than relying on the strategy to do all the heavy lifting.

Because buying in the middle of the market and hoping value-add will create the margin isn't necessarily a strategy. Sometimes, you're simply rowing upstream.

A successful property development can create confidence. But when the market shifts, repeating the same strategy with a bigger budget can expose investors to risks they didn't face the first time.

The same goes for buying property purely for tax benefits. A tax incentive doesn't turn an overpriced or fundamentally weak asset into a good investment.

In this episode, Veronica, Chris and Michael Tiemens unpack what happens when past success, changing market conditions and tax-driven decisions collide — and why investors need to reassess the numbers before assuming the next deal will work.

📍 Selling one property is hard. Selling two, interstate, with tenants? That’s a whole new level of complexity.

In our latest blog, we unpack Sita and Raj’s journey - navigating tenant issues, uncooperative agents, and market timing to finally secure their Sydney family home.

This is vendor advocacy in action - and a clear example of the real vendor advocate benefits.

What happens when housing is treated as an investment first and shelter second?

Bryce Holdaway argues that parts of the buyer's agency industry may have contributed to the conditions behind recent Budget changes, particularly through the rise of speculation, sight-unseen buying and increasingly aggressive investor behaviour.

His concern isn't simply about regulation. It's about what happens when an industry grows unchecked: the government eventually intervenes, and those interventions can create consequences nobody intended.

But Bryce also sees an opportunity. If the industry can help take some of that speculation out of the market and raise the standard of advice, the long-term outcome could be better for consumers and the profession itself.
