In this episode, Stuart unpacks a lesser-known strategy in property investing: using a private company to hold investment properties and how it could cut your capital gains tax (CGT) by up to 28%.

While companies don’t get the 50% CGT discount or immediate negative gearing benefits, Stuart explains how careful structuring, like borrowing personally to buy company shares, can preserve gearing benefits and open the door to massive long-term tax savings.

Using real-life scenarios, he shows how distributing capital gains slowly over many years, using franking credits, can drop your effective CGT rate to as low as 10%, less than half what you’d pay in your personal name.

He also breaks down:
 ✅ When this structure works best (e.g. for PAYG and self-employed investors)
 ✅ How to avoid land tax surcharges
 ✅ What to watch out for, like borrowing limitations and upfront costs

This episode is essential listening if you’re looking to build long-term wealth through property and want to know whether a company structure belongs in your portfolio mix.

Tune in to hear when and why this strategy works and when it doesn’t.
