Thanks Terry.  Could you expand on your comments re: income and tax minimisation?

Thanks for everyones feedback.  I like the idea of a unit trust but dont standard trusts have a 80 year time limit.  Apparently the C&N trust is infinite?  Are they costly to set up.  Terry, are you aware of a good property accountant in Brisbane who could set this up.  Much appreciated.  Cheers

can someone point me in the right direction on how a unit trust works for negative gearing purposes …. still much a novice regarding trusts thanks

so its possible to use a simple unit trust and still be entitled to structure for negative gearing? 

there could be land tax issues also. 

for the right commercial property GE Commercial Finance will lend up to 85% with amortisation terms of 25 years
