Thanks Paul. I follow that with regards to the destructibility of the insurance premiums themselves. But I'm trying to understand whether interest...
Thanks Paul. Sorry for being a bit slow, but I'm not clear whether you're saying the interest on a loan used to pay insurance premiums for a...
If property is currently PPOR and I borrow to pay for house (building) insurance premiums and then subsequently rent out, does the interest on the...
Thanks Terry - saved me from a potentially costly mistake!
Hi folks I was potentially thinking of having a bucket company as a beneficiary of a family trust to help smooth income over years. Is there any...
Awesome, thanks Terry. Also, if a DT were to vest in a beneficiary on the death of that beneficiary, would that be a CGT event/stamp duty? Would...
FIRST OPTION: Bart gifts $100k to Homer. Homer lends $100k back. Homer dies and bequeaths "the debt owed by Bart to Homer" to a TT that Bart...
Also, if a DT vests to a person on the death of that person (i.e. vests in their estate), does this trigger a CGT event/stamp duty?
That is correct. The intention is to be able to get capital into the TT without having to gift that to Homer before his death and also not...
I got the impression it's not possible to bequeath the benefit of the debt (as opposed to the repayment proceeds that Bart actually pays to...
Thanks Terry!
Hi everyone I was looking for a recommendation for lawyer/accountant in inner urban Melbourne to help with the following. I’ve never used an...
Right! Could this potentially work? Bart gifts $100k to Homer, Homer lends $100k back to Bart. Under Homer's will, three TTs will be setup each...
So there is no issue with the benefit of the loan from Homer to Bart (i.e. the debt owed by Bart to Homer) being bequeathed to Bart? Or is it that...
Sorry to be pain. Could you elaborate on how the gift and borrow back would work? I thought that was what I suggested above and that you thought...
Thanks Terry - will steer clear. Any ideas of how to achieve the same kind of outcome or would Bart just need to gift the money before Homer's death?
So you think a company would be needed? Appreciate we're getting into the weeds here.
You're probably right - maybe a company isn't necessary. I was concerned that there would be a debt obligation owed by Bart to Homer, and then if...
Thanks for your time Paul. The way I had envisaged this working is that because the promissory note was issued to the company and was essentially...
That makes perfect sense. Council rates really only refer to a specific period whereas repairs and improvements (like the purchase price and stamp...
