The House & Land Package Trap Investors Need to Watch

Cash flow matters, but it should never be the only reason you buy an investment property. In this TPC Gold clip, Lachlan Delahunty joins Bryce and Ben to unpack the risk of investors being drawn into house and land packages, especially when tax changes and cash flow concerns are front of mind. The big question is not just: “Will this property work today?” It is also: “Who will want to buy it from me in the future?” They discuss why investor-heavy estates, weak owner-occupier appeal, lack of scarcity and thin resale demand can create long-term problems for investors chasing a short-term tax or cash flow outcome.
