My Activity

Q: Are there any free workshops available in Sydney that provide information on how to set up and run a small business?
A: Hi Lauren, there are lots of fantastic Facebook groups that can help and offer support and guidance.

Search with some key words in groups, or send me a PM in Facebook and I can recommend some.

Good luck!

Q: I'm thinking of buying a holiday house. Is there a way to make it a negatively geared investment property?
A: Hi Bethany

If you are renting it out as a holiday letting, you can claim a tax deduction on the portion that is not for private use and it needs to be available for rentals for the remaining period. You should speak with your accountant for specific advice on your tax situation but I have experience with this as we actually manage our own holiday house in this way.

Give me a call if you would like to discuss further 0408 698 210 or send me an email.

Q: When selling a house what are the costs involved besides real estate and legal?
A: Don't forget about making sure all your utilities are up to date - rates, water, strata. Otherwise they will come out of your settlement amount.
