In this week's Pizz-Spectives, we examine how purchasing a Victorian investment property may cost you $1.9 million in wealth creation over 20 years due to land tax. That is even before we consider any additional changes to negative gearing, rental caps or changes in CGT

The episode explores structural changes from 1980 to 2020, federal government revenue losses, and Victorian balance sheet challenges. A case study compares investment in property vs. a diversified portfolio, showing significant financial impacts from land tax. The video and podcast also discusses demographic shifts and future policy impacts on property investment in Victoria.
