About the Podcast

For foreign property investors, this is an expensive time to participate in the Australian property market, with Federal and State taxes, fees and surcharges being introduced. The reach of the foreign investor surcharges can have unexpected consequences for Australian discretionary trusts as well. This session reviews the various state and Federal taxes that apply to ‘foreign persons’ and explores how even a single non-resident beneficiary in an Australian discretionary trust might result in the whole trust being subject to these hefty charges.
