Hi All,
I am in a consortium of approximately 9 people, and we are about to go into a Property Development of medium size.
It was recommended that we use and Unincorporated JV, to run the 'project' (With A Nominee Company). Reason for using a UJV is to avoid 'purchasing' the land as the owners will retain 50% and will also be in the development - hence no need to 'buy' the land.
All participants will engage in the UJV through their own vehicle. I have been advised to use the Unit Trust + HDT route. Some players will need to have the project (or proceeds) included the development for their SMSF's.
Anyone with any experience or input into the Pros and Cons of UJV's and also the use of the HDT would be appreciated.
I am also hoping the SMSF Player can effectively participate if we do use the UJV.
