Hi I'm new to property investing. Love the podcast learned lot from it. We have our personal property, just want to start property investing, I hear lot about buying in trust everywhere, but can't get my head around it as there is not much clear info on it, can you guys explain on investing property under a trust, what are the strategies we can use, how lending works when you buy property under trust. Thank you.

Hello, enjoying your podcasts a fair bit. Interesting seeing the major growth of farmland over the last 20 years and wondering why we don’t talk about investing in this sector too much?
Personally, I’ve seen more equity growth with my farm than with my residential and industrial properties over many years. Plenty of upside in the years ahead in my view. Shawn

I’ve been listening to your podcasts for a while. Excellent job.I don’t believe ever hearing the 85% withdrawal rule for FHSS for concessional contributions discussed here nor on other Rask podcasts. Could you please touch on this and how it can be justified to use FHSS for someone with low marginal tax rate I.e. less than 30%.
