PROPERTY INVESTMENT

Empire Property Group Australia’s main focus is creating passive income for retirement, by helping you build your very own empire! Our property strategists search for the right property, in the right location, at the right price and with maximum returns so you can derive maximum benefits from your chosen investment.

It's common knowledge that there are 4 key ways to create wealth; either through business, the financial markets, buying investment asset purchases (such as artwork/collectables) and through property.

Buying a property to rent out is a popular form of investment and for good reason! Houses and units are easier to understand and can carry less risk than many other types of investments, but investment property is not without its pitfalls. That’s why it is critically important to do thorough research and follow proven strategies to ensure your investment is an asset not a liability at the end of the day. With EPGA you can utilise our expertise guidance and leverage off years of experience to cut through the vast amount of information and factors involved with a property purchase.

Some of the benefits of investing in property
  • Property can be less volatile than shares or other investments
  • You can earn rental income and benefit from capital growth (if your property increases in value over time)
  • If you take out a loan to purchase an investment property, interest on the loan and most property expenses can be offset against rental income, for tax purposes
  • You are investing in bricks and mortar so it’s therefore a tangible asset

TAX EFFICIENCIES

With tax effective investment strategies EPGA can steer you in the best direction so you can potentially have THE holiday of a lifetime to look forward to when you retire.

Why pay all of that tax if you don’t need to?
Nobody likes paying tax and the majority of Australians leave it until the end of year discussion with their accountant to see if there is any way they can reduce any tax liability. The problem with this approach is that it doesn’t matter how good your current accountant is they cannot change what you already have done. You don’t have to wait until the end of the financial year to have your tax return processed to see the benefits of your investment, and you may not have to tie your precious cash flow up patiently waiting for a tax return payment to offset your out of pocket expenses incurred by an investment property. We can show you how, with the correct strategy, you may be able to redirect weekly tax payable into geared investments (PAYG only).
Why does the government provide tax breaks?
They use these tax breaks to encourage people to actively plan their own retirement so that they don’t have to fund your retirement. At EPGA we can help show you some simple strategies that will allow you to take advantage of your tax dollars and get them working harder to meet your goals and objectives.

RETIREMENT PLANNING
How much will you need to live in retirement?

And will your superannuation be enough? Many Australians are too busy with work and family commitments to take the time to seriously consider their future until it may be too late.

To achieve your goals, it is vital that you have a plan in place. If you fail to plan, you plan to fail! Unfortunately, without this plan in place you are likely to join the majority of Australians who will be living off inadequate superannuation and pensions in retirement.

EPGA focuses on property strategies for retirement and you don’t necessarily have to change anything about your current lifestyle. You could have more options than you realise. Take the time to sit down with one of our specialist property team and plan your future today.

Some serious facts about retirement:

According to the Association of Superannuation Funds of Australia’s Retirement Standard, to have a ‘comfortable’ retirement, singles will need at least $430,000 in retirement savings, and couples will need $500,000.

Many of us will spend more than a quarter of our life retired, as people are now living until an average age of 86 years (if you’re male) and 89 years (if you’re female). Life expectancy is expected to rise to 91 for males and 93 for females by 2050. So, you might need a lot more money for your retirement than you think. Unless you’re counting on a lotto win or growing your own personal money tree, superannuation can help you enjoy your retired days by allowing you to maintain a good standard of living, which isn’t achievable by receiving just the Age Pension.

According to the Australian Bureau of Statistics:
  • around 1.8 million people rely mainly on the Age Pension for their income in retirement
  • around 575,000 people rely mainly on superannuation income
  • in 2011-12, 50% of retiree couples had an annual income of less than $28,260 a year
  • in 2011-12, 50% of single retirees had an annual income of less than $21,700 a year
