Ep. 52: Trusts vs Companies: What Investors Need to Know | Dom Pitronaci

Dom from DPR Accountants is back as we unpack trusts versus companies for property investors. We show when each structure makes sense, how the tax actually lands, and the traps to avoid.

You will hear about CGT discounts, dividends and franking credits, land tax from the first dollar in some states, quarantined trust losses, corporate trustees and bucket companies, borrowing and serviceability, plus asset protection.

Clear examples show when a company can beat a trust, and when a trust shines by sharing income with family 🧾
