Buying & investing: common questions
Review the contract, the building and pest reports, strata records if it's an apartment, zoning and the true running costs. It pays to understand the legal terms before you commit, not after.
Owning in your own name, jointly, through a company or a trust each has different effects on tax, risk, finance and succession. The right choice depends on your circumstances, so it is worth getting advice before you buy.
Buying gives control and potential capital growth but ties up capital; renting keeps cash free and gives flexibility. Compare cash flow, tax and your growth plans. William can help you weigh both options.
