Budget Babblings: The Property Window is About to Slam Shut

By |2026-05-13T02:32:09+00:00May 13th, 2026|Categories: Housing Market|Tags: , , , , |0 Comments

Every Budget season, Canberra rolls out the same performance. A politician says “housing affordability” seventeen times. The media panics. Some bloke on Facebook who owns half a duplex in Logan suddenly becomes Australia’s leading economist. Most of it is noise. This time though? It’s real. The government has now confirmed that from July 2027, negative gearing on established properties will be removed for new investors. And if you think that won’t completely reshape investor behaviour over the next 12 months you’re kidding yourself. The Government Has Picked [...]

By |2026-04-28T04:24:03+00:00May 10th, 2026|Categories: Blog, Investment property, Wealthology|Tags: |0 Comments

Do you think your first property will make you rich? Hate to break it to you, but you’ve been sold a fairytale. Let’s set the record straight. Most first-time investors think their first property is meant to make them instant money. Passive income, big rent returns, huge growth overnight. But that’s not how real property wealth is built. Your first deal isn’t about profit - it’s about positioning. It’s about leverage. And if you do it right, it sets up your second, third and [...]

The Money Lessons I’m Teaching My Daughters (And Why Every Parent Should Start Early)

By |2026-05-08T01:14:03+00:00May 7th, 2026|Categories: Blog|0 Comments

Motherhood has completely reshaped the way I think about money. Before I had my girls, money was about strategy, growth, and creating freedom. And while that’s still true, becoming a mum added a whole new layer - it became about legacy. About what I pass on. About the financial fundamentals my children will carry with them for the rest of their lives. One thing I feel really strongly about is this: Our kids don’t learn about [...]

Sunday was International Women’s Day. And it made me stop for a moment and reflect. Because when I look back at my life, I realise something important… The most powerful moment in a woman’s life is the moment she decides. Not when everything is perfectly lined up. Not when everyone gives their approval. Not when the path ahead is crystal clear and wrapped in a neat little bow. But when she decides to take control. Especially when it comes to her financial future. And [...]
