Property Investment Tips: Negative Gearing, Trusts & SMSFs
Thinking about investing in property? Before you sign on the dotted line, let’s talk structure.
It’s easy to get swept up in the excitement of buying property - but when it comes to tax, the structure you choose can have a massive impact on your short- and long-term financial outcomes.
Should you buy in your personal name to take advantage of negative gearing? Or do the benefits of asset protection and income distribution make a trust more appealing? What about using your super? The answer, as always: it depends.
In this episode of The Broker’s Lounge, Eddie dives deep into the world of tax structures for property investment with guest speaker Richard Ferraro, head of accounting at Link Wealth Group - unpacking personal ownership, trusts, companies, and SMSFs.
They’ll explain how the wrong setup could cost you thousands in lost deductions or tax inefficiencies, and how the right structure from day one can open doors to smarter borrowing, stronger cash flow, and better growth potential.
If you’re planning to build a portfolio, or even just buy your first investment property, don’t miss this one. Getting it right now could save you a fortune later.
