Westan is pretty much right.

If you subdivide the front house off the cost base placed on the value of the land on the back 2 blocks will be proportionate to the land area of each bock.

I.e if land value = $100K and total land size is 1000 sq M. Front house – 500 Sq M and back 2 blocks are 250 Sq each then $25K will be your cost base on…[Read more]

Hi crashy

I presume you are referring to a Brissie property.

Depending on the zoning (i assume it is not Res A) you would need a full DA / BA and the a builder to perform the work.

After that you would need to lodge the title into the Dept of NR and get separate title to the unit before you can sell it.

Make sure that the underneath complies…[Read more]

Hi Jarvis

We purchase and develop LMR / RB3 / RB4 sites in Brisbane for a living and don’t think you will find it as easy as you think.

Stock availability is getting short at the right price. Why don’t you pick a particular area or suburb and really research it and try and find the small lot subdivisions or LMR sites that the larger players…[Read more]

If you sell the property within 12 months and 1 day from the date of the original contract you will be liable for CGT.

I am not sure where in Qld you are referring to but why not consider building on the property and gearing up with the increase in equity you will now have to buy your first few positive cash flow properties.

At least with a…[Read more]

1) If you dont have title you won’t be able to borrow. This may not be an issue as $25 – $30K isnt much.

2) If you don’t have title and you are doing work to the property you are the one who will have to chase up your profit. What happens if the Vendor decides not sell after all but just rent the property out again and he can’t pay you…[Read more]

You got it.

Put Option only exersizable at Expiry.
Call Option exersizable at any time.

And yes if Party 2 fails to notify or does not bother to notify Party 1 then Party 1 exercizes.

It is standard practise in development site acquisitions to incorporate both a Put & Call Option into the same contract.

Usually Party 1 is the owner and grants Party 2 an option to purchase the Property (Call Option). At the same time Party 2 grants Party 1 and option to sell the Property (Put Option).

The Put Option is usually exercised…[Read more]

We use Put & Call Options on all of our development site acquisitions.

Whilst over the year we now prepare our own i agree with Mel if in doubt get legal advice.

Last think you want is to find that the Agreement becomes the subject of litigiation and you loose any potential profit as your Option document is not legally binding.

Bear in mind that you are not living in the property and only looking at the property as a vehicle to generate income.

As long as the building & pest inspection reports appear fine and you are happy with the location then you don’t needd to actually inspect the property.

In ending remember when you do pop upto Qld on holiday ensure that…[Read more]

Depends on the lender and the percentage being lent but most will certainly want to come inside.

Guys

Please note that you need to hold the IP for 12 months and 1 day and not 12 months to benefit from the halving of CGT.

I have seen client’s come a cropper for the sake of 24 hours. Let me assure you that the ATO will not miscalculate the time the asset has been held if they audit you.

Think Terry has expanded on what i was going to say. All I would say is higher the rate of return higher the risk.

Yields on several blue chip stocks would not be to far away from giving you a positive cash flow especially with the benefit of franking credits and in my opinion would be lot less riskier than unsecured deposit notes.

One solution is look inter state.

But don’t tell everyone as we have enough of ya coming North to the Sunshine State. As an example 50% of properties in Stanthorpe are now owned by owners living away from Stanthorpe. In 2001 it was 11%.
