Yes for sure guess you have to weigh up the different options.... GST reg will mean a lot more accountant costs , also be paying 15% more tax on my nett profit p.a ? then when I go to sell I'd be paying 15% extra tax ?

Also if I just purchased for rental income (sub 60k) wouldn't I also not have to pay any Capital Gains tax say in 10-15yrs time ..where if I buy reg GST ...I'd be paying TAX+GST ....

will certainly be going over with the accountant before any offers

p.s ....loading the flat up ...the current owner has like 10 tenants in the small 4bed unit...
