Simply place the brances over the fence on to the land of the neighbour as they do not belong to you. Then come to an agreement with your neighbour to get a professional to cut down the tree.

If the trustee is sacked by the appointer, does that mean the properties in the trust have to be repurchased by the new trustee (stamp duty implications???) as it is assumed the first trustee will not want to be on the titles anymore?

Some people don’t believe that Steve should charge for his advice(mentoring), but then those same people are ignorant to the fact that this is Steves business. I see no difference in demanding free food from coles because they are a well off company.

Sorry to burst the bubble for you, but the 11 second rule is dead unless you want to go to a country town with negative growth, or commercial property. This is my opinion only.

When you say that you will be worth 400,000. do you mean you will have that much equity? If so, i would highly suggest looking at some top end commercial property.
