    Don’t think it matters what you choose to do. There’s certainly no right way or a wrong way of doing it.
    As long as the spending is justified with a great ROI, then it’s money well spent.
    I tend to look at the results, not the means.

    Sorry Mr5o1,

    Slight clarification.
    Disposal of any CGT assets, is considered a CGT event.
    However, despite the CGT event, main residences are exempted from Capital Gains Tax.

    I’m a bit confused re your comment about moving out of a main residence to renovate…
    What do you mean?
    Do you have any literature on this?

    Thanks

  • Kennyjaiz replied to the topic Profits eaten by tax? in the forum Legal & Accounting 15 years ago

    MsTrump,

    I don’t think I will need to get into any technical info of tax as other people on the forum has done a fantastic job. I understand you are frustrated by the fact that your potential profit maybe reduced by tax implications. However, there is no need to convince you that people are happy to pay taxes – it is a necessarily evil and an…[Read more]

    thematrix,

    The 6 year rule is also known as the Absence Rule under ITAA s118-145.
    If an individual is absent from their main residence they can still treat it as their main residence where:
    1, it is used for an income producing purpose – up to 6 years; and
    2, it is not used for that purpose – indefinitely.

    If you are not absent from the property…[Read more]

  • Kennyjaiz replied to the topic The other side in the forum Help Needed! 15 years ago

    Adski,

    With situations like that, it is important to do your research, and document all the communication with your landlord. As you have already done.
    Also, it may be beneficial to document all the improvements you have done to the property.
    You will probably find the authorities (Fair Trading and Consumers affair Vic) sympathetic towards your…[Read more]

  • Kennyjaiz replied to the topic refianance loan in the forum Help Needed! 15 years ago

    Pranay,

    If you choose to split the loan into two, the investment portion can include any purchasing cost incurred to acquire the income-generating IP. Typical purchasing cost includes borrowing costs (LMI, loan application fee, establishment fee, stamp duty on mortgage etc), conveyancing costs, stamp duty on the property transfer, etc. In this…[Read more]

    Hi Matt,

    This site gives you up to 36 months:
    http://www.investsmart.com.au/property/default.asp?s_cid=domain
    It’s just the “Invest” tab on the domain.com.au site.

    I find there’s a time lag of the data presented on this site though, so be aware when using this site.

    Sandtrackers,

    Before you go through the potentially costly engagement with a REA, you can probably try and gauge the market demand by speaking to Real estate agents as a buyer. (obviously if you say you are a seller, they will hype it up for you). As well as other investors. Just to get a sense of the market direction.

    You can also check recent…[Read more]

  • Kennyjaiz replied to the topic Refinancing investment property in the forum Help Needed! 15 years ago

    Hi Sandtracks,

    I agree with S/C.

    But to answer your questions:
    1, Yes. As property price goes up, you would have built up equity in you home. You can ask your existing bank for an additional loan or go to another bank for a refinance. (There will be costs involved of course) They will do a revaluation of the property to determine how much the…[Read more]
