Bali Property Investments - a guide for Accountants

For accountants advising clients on overseas property investments, clarity is essential. It’s common for accountants to mistake our fractional ownership model in destinations like Bali for a timeshare. This is a misconception. We understand that accountants are acting in their clients’ best interests, and we offer a novel approach to property investment. We’re always pleased to introduce them to our model and its benefits for investors.

Why our model is unfamiliar territory for accountants:

– Overseas investment with leasehold ownership lowers the entry point but opens doors to higher cash flow potential.
– Fractional investment gives further accessibility and options for diversification, starting from just A $41,000.
– By investing in tourist destinations and also with world-renowned hotel brands, your investment is more into a booming market and operator, not a single property.
– We have a team of Australian experts who guide our clients just like they would have in Australia, with equity release, SMSF purchases, tax advantages and Property Depreciation Schedules.

Why GPFG Investments Are Not Timeshare:

And when it comes to the questions about “Is it timeshare” we have outlined our top reasons why investing with us, from full or fractional ownership, is definitely not timeshare.

1.  Tangible Asset Ownership: Fractional ownership provides actual equity in the property, not just time-based usage rights. This real ownership interest in properties in prime locations like Bali means your clients hold a valuable asset that appreciates over time.

2. Income Through Rental Yields: Unlike timeshares, fractional investments offer the potential for significant rental income, especially in high-demand tourist areas. This transforms a purchase into an income-generating asset.

“This is the most obvious difference between what we offer as property investment options and timeshare,” says Mark Reed, International Sales Manager for GPFG. “Investors with us earn returns through cash flow and ROI, there are actual investment benefits, unlike with timeshare.”

3. Appreciation Potential: Properties in top tourist destinations are likely to appreciate in value, contrasting sharply with the depreciative nature of timeshares. This appreciation is critical for long-term investment growth.

4. Tax Benefits: Investors can leverage tax deductions on property expenses, including mortgage interest and depreciation, which is a savvy strategy to maximise returns.

“We partner with tax experts and Quantity Surveyors to provide Depreciation Schedules and show how our clients can write off up to 75% of their purchase prices,” says Reed. “Investments with us have multiple tax benefits, while there are absolutely no tax deductions associated with timeshare.”

5. Professional Management: GPFG ensures that all properties are professionally managed, maintaining high standards and optimising operational efficiency to maximise rental returns.

“What we want people to understand about our model, even the fractional investments, is essentially a commercial class asset,” says Reed. “Our investors are not just buying property, they are investing into an operator who will manage the property not just to cover day-to-day operations, but mainly earn profit.”

6. SMSF Compatibility: Our fractional investments are SMSF-approved, making them suitable for retirement planning—a use not permitted with timeshare investments, which lack the necessary regulatory compliance for retirement fund inclusion.

7. Flexible Investment Levels: GPFG offers fractional ownership starting at affordable thresholds, allowing investors to choose their level of investment and increase their stake as desired. With fractional, you are owning a share of a property and enjoying the income benefits of property investment at a price that you choose, with our investments starting from AUD $41,000.

8. Viable Exit Strategy: The resale value of fractional shares in tourist hotspots can be substantial. With the leasehold option, you can choose to let the lease run its course of 20 or 30 years, or extend further, or you can opt to sell it on the market at any time. This provides a clear exit strategy compared to the notoriously difficult resale conditions for timeshares.

“Timeshare is simply a holiday club membership,” says Reed. “What we are offering is vastly different. Our investors can earn, and ARE earning, returns through a strategy for wealth creation.”
