Negative gearing isn’t dead if you own a business

Negative gearing changes are law and they’re being reported as bad news for property investors across the board. Pat Mannix explains why that’s not the full picture for business owners.

Are business owners affected differently by the negative gearing changes?

Negative gearing has always mattered most to people with no other way to bring their tax down, and a salary earner fits that description more than almost anyone. A business owner’s income can run through a very different path before it ever reaches them.

In this video, Cotchy co-founder and Director, Vishal Devle walks through what’s actually changed, why the impact depends heavily on how a business is structured, and works through a real client example showing why the same loss can hurt one person and barely register for another.

If you own an investment property, or a business with a trust or bucket company in the structure, this is worth watching before assuming the changes apply to you the same way they apply to everyone else.
