In this Q&A episode, Campbell Wallace answers a wide range of listener questions from first-home buyers to seasoned investors navigating tax and strategic property decisions. John, a rentvestor with a young family, asks whether buying an investment-grade property in Melbourne now, with plans to use the proceeds to reduce PPOR debt in the future, aligns with his flexible, lifestyle-focused goals. Campbell explores how this fits into a broader wealth strategy and the trade-offs involved.

Steve seeks clarity on the tax implications of a small-scale development profit, asking whether his return will be taxed as capital gains or income, and how reinvesting or using super contributions might defer or reduce the liability. Campbell outlines the critical details of tax treatment and timing.

Namak asks how to handle a delisted ASX stock he sold for a nominal value to crystallise a loss, and whether the cost, fee, or both can be claimed. A 21-year-old first-home buyer asks about investment-grade criteria, CGT exemption rules when living with housemates, and tips for young investors planning early financial independence. Campbell closes with insights on structuring property ownership, buffers, and relationship planning. A thoughtful episode for anyone looking to optimise their next financial move.
