Q&A - Sell, Subdivide, or Supercharge? Navigating Big Money Moves

In this week’s Q&A episode of Investopoly, Stuart tackles a wide range of insightful listener questions. Julianne kicks things off by asking for Stuart’s thoughts on the Canberra property market. Shelly seeks guidance on whether to subdivide and sell land to pay down debt or wait until retirement to reduce capital gains tax. Bay raises the question of when (or whether) it makes sense to shift from low-cost index investing to more actively managed super options, especially with international shares at record highs. Stuart shares his perspective on cost vs. value when managing larger balances in superannuation. Alex, a loyal listener, asks whether the priority should be upgrading to a forever home, investing in shares, or securing an investment property first, given income constraints and private school costs. Gavin, rebuilding after a divorce, seeks advice on how to prioritise debt reduction, property consolidation, and retirement goals. Kieran explores three creative options for upgrading his family home using equity and offset accounts. Finally, Andrew asks whether Stuart has recommendations for one-off financial advice, especially for those not ready for ongoing advice. This episode is packed with practical tips and long-term strategy thinking for listeners navigating real-life financial decisions.
