A lot more confident

Slightly more confident

About the same

A lot less confident

Which statement is closest to how you see the current market?* This field is required.

It's a genuine opportunity and I'm actively looking

It's an opportunity but I'm not in a position to act

It's too uncertain — I'm waiting to see what happens

It's a risk — I'm holding what I've got and doing nothing

I'm looking to reduce my exposure

What is the single biggest thing holding you back from your next move?* This field is required.

I can't borrow what I need

I don't have the deposit yet

I don't know which strategy is right for me

I'm worried about interest rates

I'm worried about government or tax changes

I'm worried about the wider economy

I don't trust the information I'm getting

Nothing — I'm moving forward

In twelve months' time, do you expect your position to be…

Better than today

About the same

Worse than today

How closely have you followed the federal tax and property changes announced this year?

Very closely — I've read the detail

Somewhat — I know the headlines

Barely — I've seen it mentioned

Not at all — this is the first I'm hearing of it

Do you understand how those changes affect you personally?* This field is required.

Roughly, but I'd want it confirmed

No — and it worries me

No — and honestly I haven't thought about it

Which of these worry you most? Pick up to three.

Changes to negative gearing and tax deductions

Changes affecting SMSF property investment

Land tax and state-level charges

Rental and tenancy law changes

Interest rate movements

Planning, approval and build costs

None of these worry me

Yes — I've paused or cancelled plans

Yes — I've changed strategy

Yes — it's made me want to act sooner

No change

I don't know enough to say

Do you think media coverage of the property market is…

Making things worse — the negativity is doing real damage

Overblown but harmless

About right

Not covering the real issues at all

I don't pay attention to it
