Corrections: Monica meant the NT, which has no land tax. The current threshold in Western Australia is $300,000, and any land owned in either a company or trust (regardless of the type of trust) will be assessed separately to land owned as an individual or held in any other structure.
thanks for the correction, PK. I was a bit confused when I heard it in the video. By the way, is NSW the only state in which discretionary trust is treated differently (worse, as no threshold can be applied) from unit/fixed trust in terms of land tax? The other states treat any types of trust the same, correct?
Hey mate, can’t believe this interview and all the free advice provided in RUclips format. Really helpful for me, so many gems of knowledge. Disposing of the company and getting that CGT discount is amazing. That and so many gems of knowledge. Thanks you!

So good to know these intricacies! That’s why I’m having a meeting with my chartered accountant next week before finalizing the tax matters! Thanks for the great contents!

Dear PK. Been watching your videos for the last two days and they are so informative! Can’t thank you enough. Truly enlightening! This video is so informative!
Hi PK, Would like to know about the negative gearing benefits vs trust. Will we lose the negative gearing and tax saving benefits if we go for investment with trust approach? Also retro purchased property, what is the process to restructure with new trust? Do we need to sell the properties to buy under trust?
Amazing content. A wealth of information to kick start discussions with accounts and solicitors and brokers. Love it. Thank you so much for sharing your time and your knowledge.
19:19 Absoloute gold in a nutshell, build each investment property into a corporate business entity and when you want to sell you just sell the company that owns the property then you as beneficiaries *trust members * will exchange shares at market value and not attract CGT
Excellent video! I did this with one of my properties i.e put under a trust. Unfortunately, I'm still stuck with 8 properties under my name. Maybe a video on ways to re-structure without costing an arm and leg?
Yes that would be amazing, there is a broker who claims its possible to restructure a property from Personal Name into a trust without having to pay CGT or stamp duty!!! Would love for PK to interview someone about this
Yeah. In theory it might be possible to create a trust outside of the property ownership and record the property in the trust as 'an interest' or lean. I think, Chan and Naylor Accountants claim this is possible to add protection only. I don't think this has been tested in the High Court.
@@Birch37 in theory you can transfer a property from personal name to a Trust without paying stamp duty and CGT?! Sounds like impossible thing to me tbh
Yes! This! Would love a vid on how to take property out of personal name/s (my sis and I) and into a trust so that I can utilise borrowing capacity to the maximum without being penalised for my sister’s hecs debt.
Assuming the properties would need to be extremely positively geared to achieve such - given the higher interest rates to borrow in trusts, not all banks lend to trusts, land tax liability (based on state), the annual yearly accountancy costs and ATO compliance costs etc. Good luck finding these properties!
Hi Guys, great video and thanks for providing a lot of valuable information. It was mentioned there’s no land tax in WA, but there is. Can you just clarify regarding that.
@JimmyVincent-lg8sg Yes, you are right. I got my states mixed up. I was supposed to refer to the Northern Territory. The current threshold in Western Australia is $300,000, and any land owned in either a company or trust (regardless of the type of trust) will be assessed separately to land owned as an individual or held in any other structure.
How "legal" is it for a lender to request the Director of the company which is the trustee of the trust go Guarantor for the loan? That would seem to defeat the purpose of the trust structure in general.
How do you have CGT discount by using a company to hold trust? Trust is not a separate legal entity, so profits from trust belongs to the company(beneficiary), then company doesn't have CGT discount - so it doesn't make sense to me by having company own the trust for CGT discount
47:08 talk to your mortgage broker first, before a solicitor or accountant. I’ve bought a property in a trust with a corporate trustee to hide borrowings. I’ve spoken to 3 mortgage brokers since that purchase and they all laugh at the real world application of hiding/unlimited borrowings. It’s an expensive structure
Hi PK and Monica, Really appreciate this. This topic is really answering alot of my question. Is Monica base in syd? Would like to see her for consultation, if she is. Many Thanks guys. Regards
is it just me or should there be a cap for how many properties someone or trust can own ? it seems like the rich dad poor dad virus has just provoked more greed rather than living a more stable life. Once someone has 3 properties leave the rest for others
How about how many shares you can have ? Or how about only 1 car per family ? How about I can only work 5 days 37.5 hours . What if I want to work 80 hours should I stop to let others work more ?

But who do you trust to set this up for you? It's easy to google a solicitor or accountant in your area who apparently can do this, but how do you know they will do this correctly for you? and not cost you if they do it wrong.
Distributing money from trusts to others is becoming increasingly risky. So much in fact that many accountants advise against it and have been doing so for years. Putting properties in companies is a terrible idea unless you actually have a real business or want to hide your assets from bankruptcy court. The CGT is insane.
I would really appreciate a real example with numbers. For her to say in trusts you can buy unlimited properties as long as you have a deposit. Like how? Take an example of a property say $600,000 with a rent of $600 per week, the property is still negatively geared over $10k annually. When the bank see repayments they look at repayment at sensitised/assessment rates. So comments can be supported by numbers to make more sense.
Can't believe CPA is get judged on this. A couple of more group assignments does not make CA more knowledgeable. In fact, CPAs are more practical! 🤔 Also, FYI, there is land tax in WA.
Corrections: Monica meant the NT, which has no land tax. The current threshold in Western Australia is $300,000, and any land owned in either a company or trust (regardless of the type of trust) will be assessed separately to land owned as an individual or held in any other structure.
The reason is some lenders have a policy where any properties held by a trust- if the property is positively geared (ie. The rental income covers mortgage & expenses), the lender can disregard the debt associated with that property. So even though they do look at your personal income & expenses, a lot of debt can be disregarded hence restoring your borrowing power.
The trust works well in Vic as the threshold is 50k. Nsw’s threshold is 1 Mil so you are generating -17K outgoing (eroding 1.7% return per year) if you own a house In Sydney where most houses are valued ,ore than 1 Mil.
@@MONICA.ROUVELLAS yes, The land value is 70%of property value if the house is a single story old house. In Vic there is no official value dictated by the govt. I once queried a property worth 820k. The RE agent told me the land value would be 800k. :0
Yeah but I got a Corp trustee of discretionary family trust that also distributes to a corp beneficiary that owns property( that has a $1M cgt that would be triggered )but tier 1 bank johnny got confused about me taking another RE loan in its corp name. eventually I thought fck it and got extra loan in personal name!

It’s not an engaging topic for most! If you didn’t get anything out of it, you might be a) not ready for the info OR b) past needing the info. Can’t people just be kind?
These financial manipulations all work until they don’t. You’re trying to plan a long term structure in an environment of endless tax and law changes. See what they did to super? They will do the same to “investment” properties one day. Diversify away from just property is what a prudent investor would do 🤷♂️
A trust doesn’t have any land tax threshold in NSW. It makes sense to set up discretionary trust for tax purposes once you max out personal land tax threshold
SAD. Nothing legally wrong with owning 50 properties and living like a King off the backs of hard working people... however, it's exactly how to destroy a country by creating a bunch of slovenly people who don't have to contribute anything to the economy because they borrowed their way to insane wealth.

@@Antler0 You need to have a buyer who would be willing to acquire an existing company. So you're basically limiting yourself to a small number of investors who'd be open to this idea.

Learnt a lot! Cheers PK and Monica! Sub’d

Biggest disadvantage of properties in trusts is your can’t claim the negative gearing.
So if I’m at 47% tax this is of no use to me right?
Great info, PK....
Big Love
Great Value ☀️😎☀️
Been watching for ages now 😉
Loving This 🙏
is there a breakdown additional costs in trusts and companies vs individual, interested in servicing costs and borrowing services costs.
At what part of your property journey should you start thinking about a trust for property outside of Super? 3-4-5 properties?
In WA investment property Tax in high & goes up with CPI each year.
