I am considering entering into the Australian IP market. However, I'm currently unsure as to if I will be remaining in Australia for the long run (i.e. beyond the next 2-3 years).
I would have no intention of selling an IP if/when I leave Australia and understand the non-resident tax implications of this.
However, are there further considerations I should take into account? For instance, in recent years the UK mortgage market has tightened it's restrictions on lending to non-residents (resulting in much worse lender rates), and the last thing I want is to be stung with significant interest rates on an IP mortgage if I'm no longer a resident here.
Is anyone able to advise:
1. If entering into the IP market is sensible, given leaving may be on the cards?
2. If I do, are there any other caveats to be aware of should I leave Australia a few years from now?
Cheers,
Conor
