Sounds like some people have managed to get it done for around $500 after the first year — much more reasonable!

Interesting tip about using a family trust to own the LLC. Could be handy for s…[Read more]

What often gets missed is that even if the property wasn’t lived in, the intention and timing around its use can sometimes play a role in partial exemptions. Definitely a case where professional CGT advice is crucial — especially if the…[Read more]

What to Look at Before Partnering:
Clear Legal Structure:
Make sure the JV is backed by a formal agreement — not just a handshake. Define roles (investor vs active partner), profit splits, exit clauses, and who’s res…[Read more]
