"The webinar on the end of the capital gains tax main residence exemption was really informative- made sense of some rather nonsensical legislation. Shane explains everything really clearly with examples. Really recommended!"

I was taken by complete surprise because I thought I had done my homework, but I did not know this option was possible, and it is FAR superior to anything I had researched. If you have a lot of money on the line, it's wort..." Read more
