What I would like to be able to do is place markers on the areas that I have found properties and include links to excel spreadsheets that contain the details and figures of them.

I must have had the idea in my head from a Kiyosaki book. Had a thorough look at the ATO site and did not see anything relating to CGT rollover on Investment properties.

Thanks again,

Darren

I had a Uni student renting a room who wanted receipts to prove his rental expense. Therefore I had to declare the income.

At the same time I had a Self employed Carpenter in the other room who was paying cash, so I didn’t bother declaring that portion.

I bought a spec home that had not yet been completed. The builder promised to do various things ie. landscaping, fencing and other finishes.

I had him sign a list of these items and included it in the contract and I had no problems at settlement.

Does this provide the ideal opportunity to invest in overseas property? By taking advantage of cheaper property prices in the US and a higher currency conversion.

where can i get bulk insurance disc? I’m asking Rac right now and they say no!!!!

I have been using Suncorp in the past and have received incentives for paying up front.

I just completed an online quote:

Annual $406.37

Monthly $38.94 ($467.28)

Small saving but it’s better in your pocket!

Cheers,

Darren

Is it also true that a Hybrid trust carries on losses indefinately?

Used in conjunction with an offset account it also provides an interest saving on your loans.

I use it for everything and it is a great way to rack up frequent flyer points.

But if you had many properties this could cause cash flow issues. Especially if they were due around the same time.

For those interested, I will send email this weekend with more info and pictures, etc.
