  • brianhc replied to the topic Federal Budget… Good For Investors? in the forum General Property 13 years, 6 months ago

    The budget was lacklustre. A budget by politicians bereft of vision, with micro 'cajones" and indebted to greedy, avaricious mining companies, bank and major corporations. The current government has nothing to offer and the opposition are little better.Democracy has sunk to its lowest ebb. Representing the people is open to everyone, just like the…[Read more]

    Hi Rita.

    Not sure on 50%, CGT is not my specialty (I hate it! Aussie is first country I have lived in with CGT).

    Probably best to invest via a NZ legal entity(?), so that any gains via sales can potentially be reinvested in more properties without triggering a tax event, but not sure? Maybe Aussies with IPs in NZ can comment?

    Swift editing!

    Sounds a bit like life really, and Westan you’re repeating yourself.

    As someone who has lived in South Africa, New Zealand and now Queensland, I am naturally a rugby fan.

    So my question is – Are there any rules in AFL or do they make it up as they go along?

    Yours in innocence.

    Leigh,

    ‘Bianca’ was a joke right? ‘Cos surely no female would write as pedantically as I do?

    “Hows that?”
    “Don’t you start!”

    Hi Junior.

    I think we got the humour, but it opened up an interesting thread on how the star allocation system works.

    Whilst not being of earth shattering importance, it was probably helpful for the readers of the thread.

    Sometimes a humorous thread gets serious and vice versa. Ain’t life strange!

  • brianhc replied to the topic Jenman and Henry K in the forum The Treasure Chest 21 years, 2 months ago

    Jenman is just another businessman peddling his wares. Some of what he says makes good sense, some doesn’t – so discernment is the key.

    My philosophy is that when you continually seek to undermine the other’s position, you ultimately undermine your own integrity.

  • brianhc replied to the topic What’s your motivation? in the forum The Treasure Chest 21 years, 2 months ago

    To me financial freedom is simply about choices. You can choose what to do and when, go where you want, when you want. Drive the car you want (or bicycle!). Choose who to spend your time with etc.

    What you do with those choices, whether you make wise choices, is up to you. But financial freedom gives you those choices, financial servitude does…[Read more]

  • brianhc replied to the topic is now a good time to buy? in the forum The Treasure Chest 21 years, 2 months ago

    If you find a cashflow +ve IP great. Just ask yourself – will it still be +ve if interest rates increase by 1-2% and rentals don’t increase (assuming you haven’t locked in a fixed interest rate)?

    If not, can you carry the -ve cashflow from other income streams? Understanding that there might be little capital growth in the short-term.

    Muppet is spot on. No land tax in NZ, no stamp duty, no CGT (altho Aussie tax residents will pay CGT). Local Council Rates are charged as per Australia.

    Rita.
    As you’ve probably worked out by now, thread titles go from blue to purple once you have accessed that thread.

    The only name in purple should be your own.

  • brianhc replied to the topic How old are you?? in the forum The Treasure Chest 21 years, 2 months ago

    My name is Conor McCloud and I was born in the highlands of Scotland in the year 1532. Oh sorry! My real name is Christopher Lambert, I just look like I was born in 1532.

    Go Highlanders!

    Cheers[:P]

    PS. My real age is in the date, its an anagram, or is it a simile, or perhaps an aneurism? First one to guess my correct age will be ignored!

  • brianhc replied to the topic What is the best way to minimise TAX? in the forum The Treasure Chest 21 years, 2 months ago

    I suggest very few people would object to paying a reasonable percentage of their income as tax to fund necessary services and assist those who are genuinely unable to fend for themselves.

    The keywords are ‘reasonable’ and ‘genuinely’. Most people do object to paying an unreasonable percentage of their income as tax and to funding unnecessary…[Read more]

    As long as there are people in the market with more money than sense, or more access to credit.

    As long as there are people in the market who don’t understand the Greater Fool theory.
