Interesting views and thoughts posted here. However, I’m searching for professional advice on purchasing property in a ‘tourist’ region in Nevada and using the property for more than 14 days per year. I am a cash buyer (and own my own home in Aus) but don’t have a taxable income in Australia because I am a full-time student (a mature one, with cash). Also, I want to manage the USA property myself (rent on-line) outside of the time I plan to use it. Complex …do I purchase in my own name or obtain an LLC.

Waht I’m interested in is the ‘capital gain’  hopefully obtained within 10 years (and the predicated exchange rate return of  70-80c in the $). Advice or referral from anyone, appreciated. I’ve hit a brick wall and would like to deal with Oz accountants & legalities, as the processes appear complex due to the international differences of taxation and property laws including death and capital gain etc…
Referal and/or advice from anyone would be greatly appreciated. My email is [email protected] …thanks.
