You're certainly giving me a few things to think about.Let's set up a scenario. Say this year the trust buys a block of land, subdivides it and sells it as separate blocks. It also buys a house, renovates it and sells it. Also, it buys a house from a developer/builder as a house and land package, does nothing…[Read more]

I thought it a little strange that it would have to pay gst out of income generated from gst exempt items. And being a business registered for gst it should be able to claim any gst paid for goods or services used within the business activities.Ross, do you…[Read more]

For example, if we buy tools and such for renovations or pay for any labour, we can…[Read more]

And if it was bought privately…[Read more]
