Hi there,

we are busy doing our research on PI as that is our long-term goal in having success in NZ.

Now I was wondering is it acceptable for us to do property investment as well as property development(trading)?

We would be running it as 2 separate businesses. I will do the development (trading) while my wife does PI.

Is that viable or does the IRD look at it as we are a married couple we are doing this as one business.

Any thoughts?

Cheers
