Eventus Financial Featured in Yahoo Finance: Banks Tighten Investor Lending Following Federal Budget
As Featured in Yahoo Finance | Expert Commentary By Alex Veljancevski
Eventus Financial Founder and Director Alex Veljancevski has been featured in Yahoo Finance, providing expert commentary on how changes to negative gearing announced in the 2026 Federal Budget are impacting property investors and their borrowing capacity.
Alex highlighted that removing negative gearing benefits from lenders' servicing calculations could reduce an investor's borrowing capacity by approximately 20%, potentially leaving many Australians priced out of their preferred investment markets.
Using a practical example, Alex explained how an investor earning $100,000 annually could see their borrowing capacity fall from $750,000 to $600,000, despite no changes to their income, expenses or interest rates.
The article also explores how major banks are responding by reviewing investor lending policies and existing pre-approvals, creating further uncertainty for prospective property buyers.
The feature reinforces Eventus Financial's expertise in investment property finance, lending policy changes and helping Australians navigate an increasingly complex mortgage market.
