    Owning 2 properties instead of one can give you a lot of benefits. You will experience capital growth on 2 properties.
     
    Ryan.. sorry to disagree with u again… do you think owning 5 properties in Moree is better than 1 property in inner west of Sydney?
    Quantitiy is not always the best..

    Why people still want to go to non-bank lender albeit better product with slightly higher interest rates out there from big 4 ?

    D,

    Chinese investors have so much fresh cash.. and they can afford to buy the apartment with CASH…(Chinese prefers to buy everything in Cash.. whereas western prefers credit).. so don't worry about sunset clause.

    Paul,

    It depends where is the location in HunterValley. You can't buy a property in Merewether and New Lambton Heights..  for 300k
    Therefore, it also applies in Sydney as well.. you can live far northwest of sydney or further southwest to get a cheaper pric

    Terry

    I agree with you that company as a trustee has better asset protection, but you probably need to get a commercial loan. I am not aware that with the company as a trustee you can get a simple home loan package (i.e. breakfree ANZ/ CBA Wealth package).

    What happen if you have so much cash flow and prefer not to expand aggresively?
    I guess than pay down the principal does make sense

    Ryan…
    "4) Why set up a trust if you and your partner will be the trustees??? That doesn't offer the best asset protection and it just makes life hard for you. The trustee is responsible for the trust and in many cases if the trust is sued then the trustees are liable."

    Where did you get this info from? DFT has NO asset protection at all.. did you invent it yourself ?

    Thanks for the input Terry. As long as I pay the market rental rates, it should not have any problem.
    Do I need to apply for private rulings?

    In regards to point 1… I mean the rental income/depreciation can be used to offset the loan interest. How it will reduce the profit?

    I tried to search it on ATO website… can't find the ruling..thanks for posting it

    Hi Terry

    Thanks for input..
    I do have a PPOR and currently rented (and still under 6 year rule for CGT)

    I do understand that losses will be trapped in the trust and I will pay market rates for residental (as per valuer rental valuation).
    The land tax and CGT will not be relevant as I have a PPOR.

    My concern is:

    1. Can I use the rental income/deprecitation to reduce my bank interest? (NOT the personal tax)
    2.  If the DFT earns positive income (i.e. rental income >> bank interest) .. can I still distribute the money to the lowest income bracket?

    Thanks

    Totally Agree.. you need a good broker that can do deals and on the 'ball'

    With the mortgage choice/Aussie.. it depends on the operator

    I won't declare it as it makes the taxation become so complication especially CGT down the track..

    I won't say that mortgage choice/Aussie is not good.. it depends on the operator/franchisee
