With any property development being undertaken, there are a number of issues which need to be addressed to ensure the outcome is the best possible.

A major item in this is attending to the raft of taxation issues impacting on the development. Working with many clients over a number of years, we have built up a considerable expertise in this complex area.

Key Issues

Some of the issues that need to be considered in property development:

• Is the property pre Capital Gains Tax?
• Does or can the margin scheme apply for GST?
• Is the development going to be completed over a number of stages?
• Is the developer going to retain one or more of the developed properties at the completion of the project?
•  Are you re-developing an existing building?
•  What if you want to strata title an existing property – are you doing renovations at the same time?

All these and more can impact on the planning which needs to be undertaken PRIOR to any substantive works is started.
