Coronation’s Head of Urban Transformations, Aras Labutis, has been featured in Green Street News, contributing to an industry-wide commentary piece on the Federal Budget and proposed changes to capital gains tax and negative gearing.
The article explores how the Federal Budget measures could influence demand for new housing, off-the-plan apartments and Build-to-Rent, while also considering potential impacts on home prices and rental supply.
Aras’ commentary provides a balanced perspective on the potential benefits for owner-occupiers and first-home buyers, while noting that changes to investor settings could place additional pressure on parts of the rental market if some investors choose to exit or reduce their exposure to residential property.
