Tax efficiency and asset protection
Deciding whether to purchase a property in your own name, or in the name of an alternative entity such as your spouse, a trust or a Self-Managed Superannuation Fund (SMSF), will have significant ramifications. It will affect issues such as land tax, capital gains tax, stamp duty, tax deductions and asset protection. If you become the subject of legal proceedings you want to be confident that your investment property is not exposed.
