and I transfer money in - it will automatically add to the australian market
and property for very minimal cost - to make my allocation percentages back to what I had them
dkmc,

How often do you rebalance? My understanding is that once a year is often considered to avoid excessive CGT, fees and buy/sell split events.

On my wrap I dont rebalance at the moment, but I do take distributions in cash and reallocate them wherever I see fit.
