For investors looking to positively gear their property investment, does investing via a company structure now become more enticing given the company tax rate is 25%?

You can make your family members shareholders and distribute dividends as required.

When you eventually sell, the capital gain is taxed at 25% and the cash can stay in the company and be distributed on a basis that is as tax effective as possible in the new environment.

The only thing that I haven’t considered are the differences in other taxes (land tax) between an individual and a company. Is this major? Are there any other differences that are cost prohibitive?
