  • Anthony K replied to the topic Super and Death in the forum Legal & Accounting 10 years, 6 months ago

    Sorry Terry but you are in error, no individual can be a sole trustee since 1999 when the SLAA Act No 3 was itroduced.
    If the trustees are persons there must be a minimum of two.
    You have highlighted the problems of non corporate trustees – do not use personal trustees for a SMSF – EVER.
    In the case you mention had the trustee been a company it…[Read more]

  • Anthony K replied to the topic Buying using a Trust Structure in the forum Legal & Accounting 10 years, 6 months ago

    Hey Brizza
    Do not buy any property in your own name unles you want to leave it unprotected from crditors and lawyers who want to screw you over. The other reason is if you buy in your own name you can NEVER transfer it into your SMSF because its poisoned.

  • Anthony K replied to the topic Should I use a Trust or a Company? in the forum Legal & Accounting 10 years, 6 months ago

    Hi Benny
    Do not use either: a company can be OK but only if you buy land/property as trading stock, develop and sell (not hold) and want to pay a flat 30% tax from the first dollar but this is only the PRIMARY TAX, there are more tax nasties coming later.

  • Anthony K replied to the topic Company to SMSF in the forum Legal & Accounting 10 years, 6 months ago

    Hi All
    Redwood and Richard are correct,
    Q: The issues are 1. who would buy property in a compsny?
    A: A dumb person because you lose the 50% CGT discount available to individuls, partnerships and trusts (inxl SMSF at 33%)
    Rule 1 NEVER buy any growth asset in a company.

    Hi Waz and All
    Re: Unit Trusts and Land Tax
    If you have the correct documents you can gain the land tax Threshold in NSW and in other states as they all have similar rules.
    It is based on facts not opinions as the recent case below illustrates. Remember also that land tax paid under state law is a deuctible expense unedr federal law so it gets…

  • Anthony K replied to the topic Startup Business – TAX and LEGAL QUERY in the forum Legal & Accounting 11 years, 7 months ago

    Hi MkBonline
    You need to understand the definition of a "Common Law Employee" and make sure that you DONT have one of those and have a written binding contract which is for a “desired outcome” and which includes several other important provisions.

    Do not listen to the ATO BS

  • Anthony K replied to the topic maximum borrowing structure in the forum Hi Bennyhub 11 years, 8 months ago

    Hi Bennyhub
    Do not ever – never put you properties into a company unless you are a developer and you buy land as trading stock for improvement and resale.
    You immediately lose the 50% CGT discount.
    You should use your company as a trustee for a Fixed Unit Trust and also retain the ability to legally move your property to a SMSF later.
    If you are…[Read more]

  • Anthony K replied to the topic Advice needed on First PPOR to investment in the forum Hi Chris11 and All, 11 years, 9 months ago

    Hi Chris11 and All,
    This demonstrates what we should all know.
    It's paramount to PLAN CAREFULLY before you make a decision and/or sign anything.
    I NSW and QLD my understanding is the duty liability arises at the date the contract is signed, not the date of settlement.
    Have a look at QLD Duty Ruling DA016.1.1 which supports this view.

  • Hi Darryl, Terry and All
    No, it is not against the law to provide legal advice.
    It is only illegal to charge a fee for doing so.
    Anyone can give as much free advice as they choose. The legal profession act in NSW and other states only proscribes a non legal person charging a fee,
    This is because lawyers are all mostly about money, and what they…[Read more]

  • Hi Terry & All

    Terry I did not mention SMSF at all unless you can point it out for me?

    We have been establishing trusts of all kinds since 1978 including some we have designed ourselves such as our Fintel Group Pty. Ltd. TEBL Trust™ in 2004 and a joint SMSF-Unit Trust in a single document in 1995. Our TEBL Trust™ can produce after tax profit…[Read more]

    Hi ystress and All
    I agree setting up more than one fund is more expensive, I prefer this idea.
    Use a single SMSF and bare Trust and have two separate loans.
    This means that you only need two companies, a SPTC and a standard co. for the holding trust.
    Asic fees on setup $433.00 each, and on Annual Review $43.00 + $230.
    Now you are all…[Read more]

  • Hi All
    Yes,
    Darryl is right
    always go first to a lawyer as they have insurance to protect your position,
    They tell you they are experts but they can still get it wrong, and
    Not many law firms have experience in depth in SMSF law because 99% only just discovered them.

    Hi crj and All

    You are spot on crj and the ATO will just send an assessment with penalties and the Obeids’ will have to fight them in court and try to prove they do not owe the tax.
