Helping you build a stronger business, one project at a time
The ATO is now closely watching projects where land owners and builders are related. They are looking for “artificial” structures used to delay paying tax or create fake losses. We help you stay safe by making sure your business setup is real, fair, and follows the latest rules.
Frequently Asked Questions
If you build to rent instead of sell, you may now get a higher 4% tax deduction each year for your build costs. There are also lower tax rates for foreign investors in these projects. We help you check if your project meets the new rules to claim these savings.
This is a popular way to pay GST only on your profit, not the total sale price. However, the ATO has strict rules on how you value the land and what paperwork you need. We handle the math and the forms so you don’t pay more GST than you have to.
Yes. Before you buy land, we look at the numbers for you. We factor in build costs, interest, and taxes to see if the project is actually a good deal. This “reality check” helps you avoid projects that might lose money.
We show you how to use companies or trusts to keep your personal assets safe. Especially with new ATO scrutiny, we make sure your structure is built to protect you while keeping your tax bills as low as possible.
