The smart money has learned decades ago, from their Accountants and Tax Lawyers how to maximise their ability to distribute tax between family members, protect and hide assets from creditors, and help with succession planning, all this is achieved through trusts! And this makes trusts an essential tool when it comes to wealth creation. So my advice to you is don’t try to reinvent the wheel, just learn how to use it, and more importantly make it relevant to your current situation. With respect to property purchases and holdings, the most commonly used trusts are Discretionary Trusts, Unit Trusts and Hybrid Trusts. Amongst the three most common trust structures it all depends on your particular individual circumstances as everybody is different and has different requirements and strategies which determine which type of trust structure is used for each property purchase. For example, a property investor may hold several properties with different types of trust structures for each property. This definitely always depends on the particular situation every time a property is purchased, for example, you may be an employee or running a business or you may be part of a complex family or joint venture structure with non-related parties so therefore it is always recommended that you obtain advice from your accountant and lawyer to determine the best trust structure every time you wish to purchase a property before you actually acquire the property. Similarly, property investment can be very cost prohibitive and unforgiving if the incorrect trust structure is used in the beginning and to unwind and re-structure from an incorrect trust structure to the correct trust structure will subsequently give rise to capital gains tax and stamp duty liabilities as well as legal costs. It is very important to seek professional advice to ensure that the correct trust structure for your property is established from the beginning. Discretionary Trust: For many years, the Discretionary Trust has and still is the most common structure used for property investments especially for a closely-held family controlling the assets which typically does not include anybody outside of the family group. Discretionary Trusts usually provide better asset protection, estate planning and also tax planning flexibility.
