    Hi All,

    Adelaide is a great city and I would suggest our RE is the best value in the country. Not only is there a uranium boom but oxiana is building a new gold mine and roxby downs is having a huge expansion. The auto makers always seem to be on the brink of closing down here every few years I would suggest it is just a cycle and things will improve. It is my belief that Adelaide carries not a lot of risk as long as you carry out some due dilligence and by well.

    Cheers

    Hi Knuckles here,

    I use an mortgage offset account, where any money i have parked in my savings account is offset against my mortage so i only pay interest on the differance between them.I have had a line of credit before and that worked well however the interest rate is generally higher and i personally feel more comfortable with the offset account.

    Cheers

    So I now know what a QS is.

    With a positivly geared property you can depreciate everything exept the building or am i incorrect.I always thought that you couldn’t get these tax benefits from + CF prop.

    Maybe i shouldn’t think so much?

    Cheers

    How do i have a CGT exemption on my new property is it because it is my place of residence and not a IP?

    Do you only pay capital gains tax on investment property? I am planning to buy more +Cash flow IP’s
    and was planning to setup a trust to do this still educating myself in the best structure for me.

    Hi Knuckles here

    I also am in the process of purchasing a new property which will be my residence.

    I will keep my existing home to rent out it is positively geared and i have a mortgage of 80k on it.

    Is the interest on the 80k deductible?

    What other options do i have with my new porperty to make it also deductible?Is setting up a company or trust a possibility?I already have a mortgage on the land so i’ve already limited my options.

    Cheers
