All Topics / Legal & Accounting / Trust, Company, Super or personal name to buy PI?
Hi I am considering building a property portfolio and I am working out whether to buy them under my personal name or under any of the other available options.
I already have a few rental properties under my personal name and these help keep my employers income tax effective. [biggrin]
Should I buy future ones under a trust, company and trust structure or as super?? – What sort of trust and why?
My strategy is to buy and hold long term and use rental as a source of income.
Looking forward to your responses!!

You should look at trusts. Probably discretionary or hybrid discretionary trusts. If you wish to use a super fund, the fund will have to pay cash for the properties. ie they cannot be mortgaged under a superfund.

Hi there!
I’m very much the same situation as “daaussie”, where I already have a few rental properties under my personal name and these help keep with negative gearing of my employers personal income tax, I’m thinking of setting up discretionary or hybrid discretionary trusts. Do you recommend anyone is Sydney metro area? What are the expected costs?
Thank you[cowboy]
