    Thanks Terry,

    Hypothetical Scenario:

    Lets just say you (Terry) want to buy a cashflow positive property upto $150k to add to your discretionary trust. Would the potential lender look at:
    1. the serviceability/cashflow of the trust only?
    2. the serviceability/cashflow of you personally?
    3. Or a combination of the two??

    You are really helpful!!! [specool]

    You are a legend Terry!!

    So profits are not quarantined in a trust and can be distributed but
    losses are quarantined??

    Do you mind me asking what sort of trust structure you use for
    your investments and why??

    Thanks

    Baldy

    Terry,

    Thanks for your help!!
    I thought that it works like this:
    step 1: determine investing strategy
    step 2: setup appropriate trust structure
    step 3: determine what name funds will be borrowed in..i.e. that is
    trust or individual.
    step 4: purchase suitable property.

    So if the properties within your trust are cashflow positive…are
    you able to pull the profits out / distribute income???
    Or are cashflow profits quarantined within the trust just like negatively geared losses??

    Thanks heaps guys!!

    Thank you for your reponses,

    However I think I am more confused than before!!!

    So If my strategy is to buy multiple positive cashflow properties
    over a 2-3 year period…Should the trust borrow the money or should the individual??
