*Free Resources Mentioned* 👉 https://thepropertycouch.com/webinar 👉 https://moorr.com.au/negative-gearing-analysis-tool/ --- The rules are changing. But does that mean investors should change their strategy? This week, Ben Kingsley welcomes Lachlan Delahunty, Founder of Folio, to unpack one of the biggest questions facing property investors today. *As proposed negative gearing reforms reshape the conversation, many investors are rethinking where and how they invest. But according to Lachlan, the fundamentals that create long-term wealth haven’t changed at all.* Together, Ben and Lachlan discuss: • Why negative gearing was never the strategy • The difference between commutable and non-commutable regional markets • Why some regional towns thrive while others experience boom-bust cycles • The investment-grade framework: Location, Land, Asset • The role of scarcity, agglomeration and demographic trends • The risks of chasing yield, guarantees and speculative regional markets Most importantly, they explore why quality assets, strong locations and long-term thinking continue to outperform regardless of policy changes. *TIMESTAMPS* 00:00 – Negative Gearing Is Not Gone: What Investors Need To Know 03:48 – The Money Habits That Shaped A $2 Billion Property Career 12:08 – Negative Gearing Was Never The Strategy 19:19 – Regional Markets: Opportunity or Trap? 23:26 – The Investment Grade Framework: Location, Land & Asset 28:40 – Commutable vs Non-Commutable Regional Markets 42:54 – Guaranteed Returns, Hype & Regional Risk 53:16 – Why Fundamentals Still Matter 58:49 – Lachlan’s Final Message To Investors 👍 Like this video if it helped! 🔔 Subscribe for weekly insights on property, finance & money management 📲 Join 19,000+ investors on Moorr: https://moorr.com.au 💡 Access free resources via MyKnowledge: https://moorr.com.au/myknowledge 🎙 Have a question for a future Q&A Day?
