look in the heads up area. titled next sydney meeting. i have not been but may be closer for you.

what area are you from? ive read there’s a group that meets at five dock. im near parramatta, this would be alot better.

also, if there are no beneficiaries that pay less than the highest margin of tax it may be worthwile to set up a company to be the trustee. the profits can then be distributed back into this company and pay tax at 30%.

Im in a similar position to yourself and have been trying to read as much info on this site as possible, looking at real estate websites to find possible locations and making enquiries to see how much money i can borrow.
