For Investors

The 2027 CGT changes, in plain English

Announced in the 2026–27 Federal Budget, the changes alter how capital gains on residential investment property are taxed — and treat genuinely new dwellings differently to established stock.

  • 1
    What's changingFor established residential investment property, the existing 50% CGT discount is to be replaced with a cost-base indexation method, combined with a minimum 30% tax on net capital gains, from 1 July 2027.
  • 2
    New builds are treated differentlyGenuinely new residential dwellings — those that add to housing supply — remain exempt from the new arrangements, with investors able to choose the existing 50% discount instead.
  • 3
    Why it matters for your loanIf new builds and established property are taxed differently on exit, that changes which asset you buy, how long you plan to hold it, and therefore how the loan should be structured today.

Where we can — and can't — help

We can talk you through how a purchase decision flows into loan structure: interest-only versus principal and interest, offset positioning, lender selection, and how a portfolio is likely to be assessed as it grows.

What we can't do is give you tax advice. We're mortgage brokers, not tax agents. The information here is general only and doesn't take your circumstances into account.

Before acting on any of this, please speak with a registered tax agent or accountant. If you don't have one, we're happy to refer you.

The Panel

More than 100 banks and lenders

Through our partnership with LMG, we compare across one of the largest lender panels in the country — spanning residential, commercial and asset finance in a single platform.

🏦

Major & regional banks

The lenders most people know, plus the regional and second-tier banks that are often sharper on price or policy.

Non-bank & specialist

Lenders built for self-employed income, credit impairment, complex structures and situations the majors won't touch.

Commercial lenders

Commercial property, business and cashflow lenders, including private credit for transactions outside standard policy.

Asset finance

A dedicated asset and equipment finance panel covering consumer, commercial and fleet lending.

Panel composition changes over time. Not every lender or product is available for every loan type, client circumstance, or Australian state or territory, and we do not compare every lender or product in the market.

The Experience

Less paperwork. Faster answers.

The unglamorous part of getting a loan is the admin — and that's where most of the delay lives. We run on MyCRM, the industry's most awarded broker platform, which does the heavy lifting on lodgement and compliance.

  • Digital fact findComplete your details online, in your own time, rather than in a two-hour appointment.
  • SmartDataSecurely collect ID, connect bank statements and group expenses — independently measured to cut lodgement times by up to 35%.
  • eSign and secure document exchangeNo printing, scanning or posting.
  • One platform across all lending typesResidential, commercial and asset finance in one place, so your data carries across deals without being re-keyed.

Common Questions

Frequently asked questions

What does it cost to use a broker?+

For most standard residential home loans, nothing. We're paid a commission by the lender once your loan settles. Where a fee for service may apply — for example on some commercial, private or complex transactions — we'll tell you in writing before you incur any cost, including the amount and how it's calculated.

How many lenders can you access?+

As a credit representative of LMG Broker Services Pty Ltd, we have access to a panel of more than 100 banks and lenders — from the majors through to specialist, non-bank, commercial and asset finance lenders. That said, we don't compare every lender or product in the market, and not every lender is available for every situation.

Are you owned by a bank?+

No. 4ONE4 Capital is independently owned and operated in South Australia. We partner with LMG for our lender panel, technology and compliance framework, but no bank or lender has an ownership interest in our business, and we're legally required to act in your best interests when providing credit assistance on a home loan.

Does the 2027 CGT reform change what loan I should get?+

It may change the strategy behind it. If new builds and established properties are taxed differently on exit from 1 July 2027, that can affect what you buy, how long you intend to hold it, and therefore how the loan is best structured. We can talk through the lending implications — but the tax question itself needs a registered tax agent or accountant.

How long does approval take?+

It depends on the lender and the complexity of your situation. Straightforward residential applications are often conditionally approved within a few business days of a complete submission; commercial and specialist lending typically takes longer. We'll give you a realistic timeframe upfront rather than an optimistic one.

What if my situation isn't straightforward?+

That's often when a broker earns their keep. Self-employed income, trust or company structures, recent credit events, unusual security or complex commercial transactions all have lenders that specialise in them. Having assessed credit from the lender's side, we have a reasonable idea of where a file will and won't get up.
