Chye says he likes to compare Australia with its neighbours in Asia-Pacific\u2014his clients include major developers from Singapore, Hong Kong, Malaysia, and elsewhere\u2014to show them upfront that their tax rates in Australia are likely to be considerably higher than what they were accustomed to back home.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI don\u2019t do that to try and scare them, but to highlight some of the reasons they want to come to Australia in the first place,\u201d he says. \u201cWe are a safe, certain, and mature market, and there\u2019s a level of tax that comes with that.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Then he shows them a second slide spotlighting the various concessions that can help them to minimise or offset their tax burden. For instance, overseas companies that build housing stock in Australia can take advantage of concessions on land tax duties. Chye proposes long-term tax strategies for his clients, showing them in this second slide what that structure looks like.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_38585\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-38585\" style=\"width: 1000px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-38585\" src=\"https:\/\/www.asiapropertyawards.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/shutterstock_2285023533.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1000\" height=\"606\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.asiapropertyawards.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/shutterstock_2285023533.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/www.asiapropertyawards.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/shutterstock_2285023533-400x242.jpg 400w, https:\/\/www.asiapropertyawards.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/shutterstock_2285023533-600x364.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.asiapropertyawards.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/shutterstock_2285023533-768x465.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-38585\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">HLB helps educate clients, and then set up what it has structured for them.

In between sessions on AI\u2019s impact on the real estate industry, the latest in sustainable development trends, and the future of smart cities, he took some time out for a chat.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s an action-packed agenda,\u201d he says of the summit. \u201cI think the organisers do a really good job of giving busy people the opportunity to learn as much as they can from different perspectives, including from best-in-class speakers from around the world.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He particularly enjoyed the focus on sustainability. \u201cReturns ultimately come in many forms\u2014not just financial,\u201d he says.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAnd it\u2019s refreshing to be part of a community that aligns with that philosophy.\u201d<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_38587\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-38587\" style=\"width: 1000px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-38587 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.asiapropertyawards.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/shutterstock_1025960785.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1000\" height=\"562\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.asiapropertyawards.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/shutterstock_1025960785.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/www.asiapropertyawards.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/shutterstock_1025960785-400x225.jpg 400w, https:\/\/www.asiapropertyawards.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/shutterstock_1025960785-600x337.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.asiapropertyawards.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/shutterstock_1025960785-768x432.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-38587\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Australia\u2019s mature legal environment can be a challenge for investors from Asia to negotiate. TarasVyshnya\/Shutterstock<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><strong>What were some highlights of the PropertyGuru summit?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>AI was a big topic this year, not surprisingly, discussing how people can use it to inform planning and decision-making, and how it can help operations from a business perspective.<\/p>\n<p>Another focus was the social impact of housing and how we need to design more beautiful spaces, and also be more socially conscious. It\u2019s helpful to learn about these perspectives from architects and others. The concept of smart cities\u2014and how new technology is going to be designed and delivered\u2014was also interesting. There was also a lot of talk about the aspects of sustainability in development, which is very important.<\/p>\n<p><strong>AI is making a lot of news these days. Has it had much impact on your work in tax advising?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I think AI will help us to deliver more valuable advice and get to solutions more quickly. If you ask AI a question, it typically gives you the most common denominator for an answer. But our job is to tailor our advice specifically for each client. So, AI can help us streamline processes and give us some starting points, and it enables us to find information more quickly, which is valuable. But for now, we only use it to handle basic tasks more efficiently and assist certain elements of our workflow that don\u2019t require complex thought processes.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What is a typical process of advising companies that are entering Australia?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>First and foremost, we want to talk with our clients about their commercial objectives. We spend time educating them about different taxes so they\u2019re aware of all tax planning that should be considered. In Australia, once you sign a contract to buy a property, it\u2019s hard to restructure it into a different entity without incurring significant time and cost. There are a lot of developers who focus exclusively on getting a deal done\u2014and figure they can restructure it later. But at that point, they often learn there are a lot of additional costs involved in restructuring, particularly what we call stamp duty or landholder duty. This can be very expensive.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_38589\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-38589\" style=\"width: 1000px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-38589\" src=\"https:\/\/www.asiapropertyawards.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/shutterstock_571655050.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1000\" height=\"668\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.asiapropertyawards.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/shutterstock_571655050.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/www.asiapropertyawards.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/shutterstock_571655050-400x267.jpg 400w, https:\/\/www.asiapropertyawards.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/shutterstock_571655050-600x401.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.asiapropertyawards.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/shutterstock_571655050-768x513.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-38589\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Josh chye says that Australia faces a huge challenge in addressing a housing supply shortage. TonyNg\/Shutterstock<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>The good thing about Australia is it\u2019s a very mature legal environment, which is great if you are advised from the start. It can be quite seamless. But it is very problematic if you aren\u2019t aware of that, and you make certain assumptions. There are certain parts of the tax law that are not commonly known unless you get advice.<\/p>\n<p>So, we try and help clients understand how to set up the right structure or tax strategy before they fund in Australia. And then we help them set up those entities, along with their lawyers, and help set up contractual arrangements to maintain those entities. This lets us follow through on the overall tax plan to minimise the impacts. The goal is to be part of their extended team, long-term, in Australia. If we do a good job\u2014we help educate them, and set up what we\u2019ve structured for them\u2014then we don\u2019t just create entities but help maintain them all the way through.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>A lot of the challenge is summarising complex or different perspectives to a new entrant, so they understand or learn about all the unique parts of Australian tax law<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><strong>What do you like best about the work?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>What I like best is leveraging my technical and industry expertise\u2014on tax, which isn\u2019t always the sexiest topic\u2014to ultimately build a relationship with our clients where we\u2019re always learning from each other. I leverage my expertise and my firm\u2019s broader scope of services to help them quickly get where they want to be, as one of their trusted advisors or business partners.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What are the biggest challenges in providing tax advice to companies entering Australia?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Australia has certain unique aspects that aren\u2019t common around the world. So, for example, trusts are a common and legitimate type of entity in Australia. But this is often not well known elsewhere in Asia Pacific, for example, and can be seen as an aggressive or contrived arrangement.<\/p>\n<p>A lot of the challenge is summarising complex or different perspectives to a new entrant, so they understand or learn about all the unique parts of Australian tax law. Often, they come from a lower tax jurisdiction, so they\u2019re already a bit nervous about the headline rates in Australia. They might feel that back home they would structure things using a certain strategy, and they sometimes might think they should: \u201cBuy first, do it later.\u201d Whereas in Australia, you should always do it the other way around.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_38591\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-38591\" style=\"width: 1000px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-38591 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.asiapropertyawards.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/shutterstock_652935751.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1000\" height=\"667\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.asiapropertyawards.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/shutterstock_652935751.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/www.asiapropertyawards.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/shutterstock_652935751-400x267.jpg 400w, https:\/\/www.asiapropertyawards.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/shutterstock_652935751-600x400.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.asiapropertyawards.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/shutterstock_652935751-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-38591\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Australia offers a well-trodden path for property development. f11photo\/Shutterstock<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Building trust with clients upfront is critically important. And that\u2019s the biggest challenge for me. That\u2019s why coming to a place like PropertyGuru, or being part of HLB\u2019s global network, is valuable. Because if we work with people who refer one another, or who have relationships with developers, it significantly improves our chances of helping them understand that we\u2019re supporting their best interests, whether it\u2019s us directly or through our collaborators.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What are the biggest challenges specifically in Australia\u2019s property market right now?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Right now, it\u2019s housing supply. It\u2019s a big destination for migrants and that requires housing. So the government is focused on helping deliver more stock to people who need it. It is targeting building 1.2 million homes over the next five years, which in a population of about 22 million is significant. That would average 240,000 dwellings a year. But the most we\u2019ve ever done previously in one year was 220,000 in 2017. The government faces the challenge of implementing the biggest housing reform and incentive plan the country has seen for a long time.<\/p>\n<p>Typically, developers often build to sell, but Australia is now trying to move toward build-to-rent. It\u2019s a way to grow housing stock. The idea is very mature in the US and Europe. It\u2019s still relatively new in Australia, but taxes are now available, and this potentially supports large institutional capital from overseas if they put money in to help Australia build up its housing stock.<\/p>\n<p><em>T<\/em><em>his article was originally published on\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.asiarealestatesummit.com\/newsroom\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">asiarealestatesummit.com<\/a>.
