Are you making property investment decisions based on facts—or common misconceptions?

In this episode of The Property Management Playbook, Andrew sits down with Travis Whelan of Seeder Finance to unpack two of the most influential concepts in Australian property investing: Negative Gearing and Capital Gains Tax (CGT).

Together, they break down how these strategies work, why they matter, and the role they play in building long-term wealth through property. Travis shares his insights on the financial realities behind negative gearing, the tax implications investors need to understand, and the common mistakes people make when focusing solely on tax benefits rather than investment fundamentals.

The conversation also explores how Capital Gains Tax can impact your exit strategy, why cash flow and asset growth should remain key considerations, and what investors should be thinking about when planning for the future.

Whether you're a first-time investor, a seasoned property owner, or a property professional looking to better understand the financial side of real estate, this episode delivers practical insights from both a finance and property management perspective.

🎧 Tune in as Andrew and Travis separate fact from fiction and discuss how smart investors use tax strategies as part of a bigger wealth-building plan—not as the plan itself.
