Rentvesting is the strategy of renting a home for lifestyle reasons while owning an investment property elsewhere for rental income and capital growth.

Australia’s 2026 tax reforms restrict how losses on established residential property contracted on or after 12 May 2026 can be used from 1 July 2027.
