So you’ve listed your holiday rental on Airbnb.

Is a full tax deduction automatically available for rates, interest and repairs on that property?

Not necessarily, and if you own a property that you rent out for part of the year, it’s worth taking a closer look at how your property is being used - and whether it genuinely qualifies as a holiday rental.

PrincipleFocus Director Rebecca Pryor steps us through the latest ATO rules and regulations regarding holiday rentals in this latest blog post, live now on our website.

The best succession plan is one that works for the family, not just the tax return.

That was just one of the key takeaways from the Tax Institute’s 2026 Tax Summit, which saw the close connection between tax, ownership and succession take centre stage over the course of the three-day event.

As PrincipleFocus’ Pious Matimati writes, it’s this very connection that every family needs to be conscious of - so short-term tax decisions don’t dictate the decades to come. Read more below.

It’s not about what you know, it’s about what you notice.

That was just one of the learnings our Senior Consultant, Sarah Nash, brought back from Mindshop's incredible Australasian Conference in Melbourne recently - and what an event it was.

As a leading coaching and resource hub for advisory services, Mindshop brought together some of the nation’s leading business advisors together for two days of focused discussion on the future of advisory services as well as trends in AI, technology and leadership.

Keynote speeches from Adam Spencer and Alisa Camplin were among the other highlights of the event, and it was wonderful to catch up with the likes of Emma Olsen at Flor Hanley over the course of the event.

Stay tuned for more Mindshop insights from Sarah to come.

80 per cent of accounting firms are just statisticians, who hand out the hard data once all the decisions are done and dusted.

The other 20 per cent are navigators, and they’re here to sit beside you and your business; providing you with the data that will drive your decision making, when you need it.

That’s the approach that PrincipleFocus prides itself on, with our management accounting services providing clients with proactive advice and real-time insights to help you make the right call at crunch time.

If you want an accountant that does more than just the numbers, get in touch with us today.

Multiple generations, one family, one business. Family farms can be complex operations, and having one source of truth for your financial and operational data is key to ensuring there is transparency for everyone involved.

As Nicolette explains, it’s about putting all the information on the table, so every family member can make an informed decision, in the best interests of the business.
