  • MJK replied to the topic land tax is it called council rates in NSW ? in the forum General Property 20 years, 2 months ago

    So I rang the OSR and one of my properties is not comming up on there computer??? They said don’t worry when we find it we will issue a notice.
    They said I didn’t need to contact them for assessment. They will contact anybody who is over the threshold. Without one of my properties in the database I was below last year.
    Is this a good thing? One…[Read more]

    Thanks ChanDollars,

    Perhaps thats what I should do.

    Thanks Erika,

    I did wonder if they would send a bill.
    They didn’t last year.
    I must have been just under. This year I should come in around 500k unimproved. Ouch! Lets see if they send a bill this time.

    If they dont send one I suppose I’d better apply fo assesment.

    Actually no Mel. I’m talking your home town. Brisbane. The post was originally started by a NSW person but I’ve hijacked it.

    I did have a look a the qld website but I wanted to her personal experiences.

  • MJK replied to the topic Residential as opposed to commercial in the forum General Property 20 years, 2 months ago

    I just bought my first commercial last year.

    I think youve got to be ready for it. If my tenant moved out I would have to pay $2800 in interest to the bank every month without income where as if a tenant moves out of one of my houses it will only cost me $700 per month.

    Now if a residential tenant moves out I expect to get another in 4 weeks

  • MJK replied to the topic How to privately Sale Your IP while still tenant? in the forum General Property 20 years, 2 months ago

    Its no big deal.
    Just let your agent handle it.
    It will be easier if yiu sell through your property manager/agent as they will know the tenant.
    If your selling you don’t have to worry about the tennants leaving as much do you?

  • MJK replied to the topic land tax is it called council rates in NSW ? in the forum General Property 20 years, 2 months ago

    So what do people do?

    Do you pay the tax just before the end of the financial year so as to get your refund asap ?

    Do you lodge for land tax separate to your tax return or with your tax return ?

    Land Tax is tax deductable isn’t it ?

  • MJK replied to the topic land tax is it called council rates in NSW ? in the forum General Property 20 years, 2 months ago

    So do you go by the unimproved valuations on your rate notices or do you have to lodge for assesment ?

  • MJK replied to the topic land tax is it called council rates in NSW ? in the forum General Property 20 years, 2 months ago

    How can you submit a return when they havn’t given you all your land valuations ? I received 3 valuations but still have more properties with no valuations yet. ( example from QLD. )
    Do they submit valuations to oners annually ?

    Also land tax is tax deductable isnt it ? So how is this recouped when you sell if you havn’t been paying or claiming…[Read more]

  • MJK replied to the topic The Future? in the forum General Property 20 years, 2 months ago

    Personally Kay, I think there is a time to stay out of the property market ( that is new purchases ) and that is now.
    Rental returns need to improve and capital growth in most areas has probably done its dash.
    I’m not saying there will be no growth in the future, all I’m saying is entry into the market may be better timed in a year or two.

    Their Median prices and growth rate seem to be a bit conservative also.

  • MJK replied to the topic Due diligence for Commercial Property in the forum General Property 20 years, 3 months ago

    Damian,

    When I purchased my commercial property the offer was subject to a ” deed of extension to the lease” for three years. Once the offer was accepted this was written into the special conditions of the contract so that if the extension was not signed the deal would not go through.

  • MJK replied to the topic +ve cashflow in brissy cbd??? in the forum General Property 20 years, 4 months ago

    Rent seems too high and unit too cheap!
    At 90K in the Brissy CBD it must be an undesireable unit ? Why would anyone pay 250 PW for an undesireable unit ?

    OK so if its all true, go for it. The figures stack up as a cash flow option. Forget about capital gain though if it is an undesireable unit.

    Paying rent will never help you get ahead.

  • MJK replied to the topic GST on commercial property in the forum General Property 20 years, 4 months ago

    Sounds about right. I recently purchased a commercial property as an “ongoing concern” and it was not subject to GST. It’s the way to go I reckon.A quick phone call to your accountant may reassure you.
    I still registered for GST and got an ABN because I am collecting GST with the rent.
    If commercial rental income including recovered outgoings is…[Read more]

    Email sent.

    Perhaps I sould say that I don’t think my agents will be the type to find “11 second rule” properties, although the commercial property is, it was $470,000 which may not fit everyones criteria.
    The residential agent found me capital growth properties that I could nuetrally gear.

    There was a post on favourite books a while back you could search for. I think books are the best way to learn apart from doing.
    What you will find is most books have a different slant and you’ll have to work out the best approach for you.

    EG.
    Positive gearing – Steve McNight 0-30
    Positive cashflow – Margaret Lomas ( author. )etc…
