    You can achieve a much better return than that, e.g., 60%plus, with far less risk.

    Nice Teaser Jason..

    I’ll bite..where can you get 60% return with Less Risk

    Just my opinion but i wouldn’t think the tenants could breach this lease for this fact alone..I would definetly have words with the PM as well though about any costs incurred or loss of revenue(speak to the Principal)

    LMI sometimes enables you to get a higher loan as well though in some cases doesn’t it?

    You still pay CGT on the back block dont you?

    A great strategy though, one I’d love to employ, though I’d rent the front one, sell the back block and use the cash for another IP Deposit (or two).

    Plus side- no capital gains tax is incurred on primary residence when you sell it some time in the future.

    How about if you didn’t own it..but you controlled it,…you pay CGT if you sell, but if you dont sell and acquire additional IP’s under this banner, renting from a Company controlled by yourselves.

    I’ve heard of many ways of doing this..with Negatives and Positives on both sides

    Cata, whom do you work for, do you have a website?
    Redwing – HDT?? Acronym for?
    (And I thought there was a lot of 3 letter acronyms in I.T..i think property takes the cake [specs]

    Sell on the 1st July [biggrin]

    At least you now know about various structures that are avialable and can acquire new IP’s through the correct structure to suit your strategy..

    From Memory even Steve uses a Family Trust..

    If you sell to the Trust you must pay stamp duty..

    WHY sell to Trust and then sell again??

    No need to make the child a beneficiary depending on the trust as it will automtically become one..also you will need the child signature for any loans through the trust once 18..

    Are you talking HDT ?

    Just wondering, if the sh*t hits the fan do you think people in the city will pack up and move to the country where there is cheap accomodation?

    If everything does indeed move in cycles why not protect yourself via having a large LOC secured against your Properties, fix your rates for a period and ride out the Bust part of the cycle when it hits..

    Had a look at cracker.com.au , strange real estate area

    They dont make it easy do they..[blink]

    I would also be thinking a reverse Mortgage or looking to leverage the Property, maybe establish a Trust and look at some JV’s with family who would stand to inheret anyway..

    It seems the goal is to try and access the value without losing the asset…

    However, what if they sold the asset (move into a retirement village, or acquire another slightly cheaper property under the correct structure-leaving additional funds for thier personal investment/use for the next few years) then looked at thier options with the end goal in mind..if the land was to go to the kids would it have to be sold and split anyway..?

    Throw that same question up on Aussiestock Forums and see what the Traders there think of $30k per Month being achieveable as well..and any inherent risks with such strategies..

    In saying that, there are many proponents of such strategies though, including Peter Spann..

    Its called The Truth About Positive Cashflow Investing and there’s a chapter on structures (e.g. trusts). Basically, her opinion is that they ail in their intended purposes.

    Hmmm..

    I’d speak to someone who uses them to thier best advantage then for an opposing view, there is also a great deal of information about using them to thier best advantage for;
    Asset Protection
    Retirement Planning
    Succession Planning
    Taxation

    Sell the apartment..put profits into your PPoR(value should’ve increasedon both by the time PPoR is completed).use the equity to purchase another IP?

    Buy the PPoR as an IP through the correct structure and rent it to yourself..again as above use the equity from the first property to purchase the next IP in the same structure?

    How about then using Intertest Only Loans on both facilities reducing your loan payments..?

    just throwing some thoughts around..
