    The fixed unit trust I have been reffering to. It holds all the shares in the company and then 4 family trusts own 25 units each of the unit trust

    Thanks. Would havIng the unit trust in between be any better, have any additional advantages? In terms of asset protection for assets held by the family trust

    Thank You.

    I totally agree with you gentlemen. That is why I have not set it up yet, i am researching, reading and finding information. i have not and will not execute anything until i have the complete info hence no mistakes yet.

    I will pay if the need arises, but not without understanding everything.

    Answering Your Questions.

    The Fixed unit trust is going to be 100% shareholder of a company, to be formed. The company does not and will not have major assets as such. Its kind of a service business.

    The company will have 1 director, Unit Trust will have 1 Trustee.

    The rest of the story is in my earlier posts.

    I totally understand you sir, but I cannot afford to spend 1000’s of dollars on a lawyer.

    If the above is correct, then there are only two other family trusts involved who have one trustees each and they hold the other 25 Units each.

    It can be simple with information or complicated without information i guess.

    All i want is 100 units split into four unit holders, with 25 units each. 4 trusts, 3 with 1 trustee each and one with 2 trustees.

    I think i almost have all the information required.

    If i can make sure that the post above is correct then i think i have got the info. Then i can go into law central or some other website and i will do it online

    With the info i have, do i still have the chance of stuffing up ?

    Thanking You

    How many joint holders are there (in this holding)? 2

    Unit Holder 1

    An individual Name John CITIZEN (Trustee No 1)

    Thank you.
    So does that mean that Trustees of “Family Trust 4” will Hold the 25 Units as joint unit holders, and the 3 Trustees of the other 3 family trusts will hold them as sole unit holders.

    Thanks Rhino for your Help. I have been given the options by this company. 4 options, best and most expensive and extremely profitable to the cheapest and easiest and achievable by me. I am gonna do some thinking and decide in a few weeks. according to the company. Another $5-8K would take me to the planning application stage.

    I have a question. If I am going to be building a house on this new subdivided land to live in. Would i qualify for the New FHOG Boost for building a new home. If not would i qualify for at least the original $7K.

    Hi,

    I have a question. I am in the process of subdiving the land on this investment property. If I build a house on the new subdivided land to live in. Would i qualify for the New FHOG Boost for building a new home. If not would i qualify for at least the original $7K.

    I terms of the date, where it is only applicable for houses purchased before 30 June 2009. Is the construction date the crucial date or is it the completion date of the newly-constructed home.

    Hi Michelle ? whats PM. Oh Perth, i used to live there many years ago.

    Well this company is pretty good according to the information available in its website. They do complete planning & building service. They have even won many awards. Its too late now but i have already engaged their services via phone to look at the feasibility of placing another property in the block. I sent them the title, plan etc, and address. They got back to me today and said that "

    They have completed preliminary research.
    There are several options for putting additional dwellings on the subject site.
    they would like to arrange a site meeting to have a look and discuss, and that as agreed the fee would be payable
    when they provide the summary report on site. Its up to 2000 + GST, but i do not know the exact figure yet.

    Am I Stupid ??

    Thanks Mate. I have contacted some companies as suggested. i also contacted some one who will draw me a site plan of the property to start with. This will give me a better idea before i go and spend $1500 on a town planner for assessment.

    Hi everyone,

    This is what i received.

    "If you sign a contract to purchase a property to live in, on or after 14 October 2008 then you will be eligible to apply for the additional $7000 boost.

    The investment property you purchased will have no effect on your eligibility to receive the grant provided you never reside in that property. "

    Cheers
