Property problems: Unit trusts similar to company investment
Q. I have inherited from my father's estate units in two property trusts. One is listed on the NZX and the other on the ASX. I have never owned shares before. What is the difference between a "listed property trust" and a "listed company"? If I sell the Australian units will I have to pay any Australian taxes on the proceeds and is there any problem in bringing the money back to New Zealand?
