Common Tax Traps That Can Be Prevented

Umbrella Accountant’s principal, Garry Wolnarek, has worked as public practice accountant for over 21 years. He has witnessed tax traps that occur with property investment, and developed strategies to prevent his clients from falling into those traps.

Paying GST & Income Tax

Some first-time investors don’t realise that if the intent of the property purchase and sale is to make a profit, then they have to pay GST and income tax. These additional costs can really affect the bottom line of the development project.

Property Purpose Change = Capital Gains Tax

If the purpose of the property changes, capital gains tax may need to be paid on the value of the property.

For example, purchasing a property and renting it out for a few years, and then approaching the council to build four townhouses on the land. This is considered a change in property purpose, from a capital asset to trading stock, and capital gains tax will need to be paid on the value increase of the land.

There Are More Traps

These are just two common examples. This is why it’s worth receiving professional consultation from Umbrella Accountants. It can result in saving you $1,000s in tax.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/6″][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_separator][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1/4″][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/2″ css=”.vc_custom_1486970990263{border-top-width: 0px !important;border-right-width: 0px !important;border-bottom-width: 0px !important;border-left-width: 0px !important;padding-top: 0px !important;padding-right: 0px !important;padding-bottom: 0px !important;padding-left: 0px !important;border-left-color: #000000 !important;border-left-style: solid !important;border-right-color: #000000 !important;border-right-style: solid !important;border-top-color: #000000 !important;border-top-style: solid !important;border-bottom-color: #000000 !important;border-bottom-style: solid !important;}”][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1486985861031{padding-right: 5px !important;}”]
