haha good for you mate, i wish you the best, but a lot of what you are lobbying for would be hard to get over the line.
haha you dont know a thing about me.
1. CGT on the PPOR at 20% if sold under 10 years. (exemptions for legit reason to move. ie work family health etc)
2. Land tax of 1.5%, all property, no exemptions (pensioners and other low income groups can accrue this until the house is sold)
3. Death tax of 20% on estates over $1million. – Yer great, work all your life to leave your kids a future to get taxed, on stuff youve already purchased with dollars than have been taxed.
4. No stamps. this should have happened with gst.
5. Family Assist Part S (Senior) – A pensioner can sell up and the proceeds remain asset test free for the pension, if they move into another shared home. The family/young couple (need not be related) would get the rent tax free aand a $5k grant from the govt. We can not end up with 32% of our homes as lone occupants. That is a disaster We are currently at 22%.. this is dumb.
6. NG on new builds only. dumb.
7. GST to 20% and the tax free threshold for wage earners raised to $40k. Increase welfare payments accordingly. doesnt bother me i suppoe, but major tax reform would be nice.
8. Rent increases no greater than CPI +2% by law. Natural disasters aand mining booms are creating hugh rental stress. dumb.
9. Marriage tax rebate. For marriages over 10 years a 3% reduction/rebate in PAYG tax. lol, dumb. you should be able to income split though.
10. For someone who emigrated away from OZ and has been away longer than 5 years, their HECS debt get cancelled on their permanent return.ridiculous.
I havnt spoken to my broker yet.
Im the one who is learning.
Jamie, do you mind if I contact you for some advice?
Also, I had to use my ppor as security for ip1 because i had no deposit, all my money was tied up in equity in my ppor.
Is this articale suggesting I increase my IP1 loan wo cover the deposit and buying costs of IP2, then the bank will simply hold IP2 title as security?
Thus I keep IP1 title.
Im I getting that?
If I do that then I reduce my negative gearing capability in IP2 as it will only be in my name, and I am the sole bread winner paying 80k+ tax a year.
But how can I obtain a second investment loan with another lender without firstly using the ivenstment property as security plus 20 to 30% deposit, in the form of equity on IP1?
I dont want to move the 110k cash I have in the offset on IP1 because I dont get full negative gearing benefits from that loan.
Also, I do have a broker but havnt spoken with him as of yet as I like to educate myself.
yes you need a misa account.
wow, your preantes are very lucky to have gone through the boom like that.
haha. I wish engelo.
I invested in lotto for many years. I won 3 million and now enjoy over 100k per year in bank interest.
Very true.
I hate when people use the not fully transactional line with the CBA MISA. So you can withdraw amounts less than $500, big deal.
I have a CBA IO only with MISA and its fantastic, ay 6.96% currently.
113k to 20k, im sorry, whats wrong with it?
Nathan, what year did you buy your first property?
I was at a mortgagee auction this morning. No bids, passed in.
Even a mortgagee vendor asking for stupid prices.
Correction, I dont think so.
thought as much, thanks guys.
5 hours a day
ok, id like to be able to find CF+ properties in the areas Im favouring, but no cigar.
Although Im not really looking for that per say, Im after something I can add some value to, whether by development, renovation, whatever.
engelo, do you think property prices will be going up in the next 2 years?
