Hey guys,
I'm looking to go in with 2 other parties on a commercial property, but I don't know how to structure the loan.
I don't have the resources to go it alone, neither do the other parties. Normally a family trust would be the way to go, but the property is negatively geared by ~40k/yr and we need to use that loss to reduce personal income tax, which a trust doesn't allow to my knowledge.
Buying it under a joint commercial bank loan (70% LVR) under all 3 names will effect our individual borrowing capacities, and make us very co-dependent, which we'd prefer to avoid. At the moment, this seems it might be the only available option?
Our financial positions: I'm investing with a very modest income. The other people involved; one has approx 1.5mil in equity in 2 properties but very low cashflow <50k, and the other person is on approx 130k salary with no property.
All parties are open-minded, and the partner with 1.5mil equity is prepared to secure loan against ones of his properties if required. We're all looking to invest in further property in the next 3-5 years.
Any advice would be appreciated.
Jon
