    Hi Dragon,

    Your requirements are going to be very much dictated by what your goals are. I’d suggest that you talk to a solicitor regarding your requirements and also your accountant. You need to be careful how you go about things. For example if you set up a certain type of trust/company, you may not be able to distribute losses (if you’re planning on negative gearing), etc etc.

    If you’re concerned about a fallout between your friend and yourself, draft an agreement between you and have it looked over by a solicitor, that way you’ve got what you need in the letter, and let the solicitor worry about any legalities.

    D.
