Summary: The debate on negative gearing and how it impacts the Australian Property Market is ongoing but when the RBA suggested that negative gearing might be up for a review last week, the debate got hotter. This is further fueled by the controversy about <a href="http://www.thepropertycouch.com.au/abc-news-24-property-bubble-in-sydney/" target="_blank">property bubble in Sydney</a> and how <a href="http://www.thepropertycouch.com.au/four-ways-a-property-investor-will-pay/" target="_blank">property investors</a> play a role in it.<br> So this week on The Property Couch, Bryce Holdaway and Ben Kingsley decides to tackle this debate head on and discuss about the history of negative gearing, why some people are against negative gearing and how will it impact our economy if it’s being scrapped off.
