hmm, so I'm guessing nobody actually does this..

I recently established a SMSF and used it, and borrowings to purchase a commercial property. Among the masses of reading and learning I came across this page that states: Yet I can find no mention of this requirement/advice anywhere else. Can anyone comment on this? THANKS.

Well I did wonder about that Dave.. It seemed so obvious that I figured the ATO would have something in place to spoil the fun... It's similar to a small startup business spending up on equipment to get set up, then claiming back the GST and de-registering.. If it's a common practice, then...

That's what I meant Scott, thanks.. I guess I'll now need to determine if it's worthwhile registering the business for GST so it can claim back this GST paid on the rent..

Hi All, I think the answer to this is obvious, but would appreciate another opinion.. My SMSF will soon buy a commercial property. The SMSF is registered for GST, but will only own the one property and the rent will be well below $75k/yr. My business will rent the property. The business...

Hi All, Is there anyone here who has purchased and operated a management rights business in Qld? It is something I am seriously considering buying into, and would like to bounce a few questions past you via PM if you don't mind. Thanks.

Thanks for the replies. I asked the question because although the IP in question is currently insured with Suncorp, I am dissatisfied with how thay have handled a malicious damage/loss of rent claim. I am certain Terri Scheer or EBM would have done a better job, and the advice from my...

Hi all, I have a property I'd like to insure with Terri Scheer or EBM for landlord issues, but with another company for the building/contents. It is currently insured with Suncorp, and they tell me they will not insure just building/contents when the house is rented, it must be under a LL...

Hello, I have an IP that was trashed and abandoned by the tenants back in September 2013. The smashed up the shower and the kitchen, and scribbled on the walls. After some 4 months of battling, the insurance co. have agreed to pay the lost rent. Repairs are still ongoing after almost 6...

I'm not looking at using this issue as the reason as it's difficult to "prove" and pointless. I'm looking for any other means or methods to break the lease. Even something as simple as Terryw's suggestion is probably worth a shot. Everything is negotiable I guess!

Help please! I have a tenant in NSW who it seems is causing water damage due to their bathing habits and general lack of grey matter. They have 4 months or so remaining on a 12 month lease. I want them out. What avenues exist in the tenancy act to remove them? Property requiring...

Put it on ebay, 'buy it now' for $1, pickup only. Someone will come and take it away. I've done this with garden rocks i wanted to get rid of. Someone came and cleared my yard of large stones for me :)

Unfortunately not. The existing house is too wide.

I wanted to ask if anyone had been successful removing an old house in a Brisbane DCP? I have an old house on 2 lots that I'd love to remove and build 2 new ones. I've read all the material published by the council, but wondered if there was any way around the rules.. Relaxations etc...

THANK YOU! I use onthehouse all the time, but never realised it had that function!

Hi All, Does anyone know how to determine when a listing was posted on either of the popular RE sites? It's beyond my knowledge, but I thought maybe a page creation date is buried within the html info, or maybe an attribute of the photos? Thanks!

The ABN means nothing, it's just a means for the government to collect GST from him....

Yep, that's how I would do it too..

Yep.. Read up on section 90B of the Australian Family Law Act. It's available via google search.

Does anyone have any experience with doing a budget kitchen reno by installing stone overlay on top of the existing laminate tops? This mob in Brisbane does it http://www.altsastone.com/Stone-Benchtops.html Good or bad? Thanks.
