[11:59:14 AM] steve k: Hi Chritian, good to know if I need help will get in touch on recruiting

[11:59:28 AM] Christian Makande: Alright. Thanx

[1:18:51 PM] steve k: I still want us to focus on the realestate, you have been a great help so far

[1:19:10 PM] Christian Makande: Thank u steve

[1:21:46 PM] steve k: hard question, do you know anything about tax structures , like the seychels

[1:22:20 PM] Christian Makande: Can reasearch on it

[1:22:37 PM] Christian Makande: what exactly do you wan to know?

[1:24:11 PM] steve k: I have a long term plan, want to find a tax structure that would allow me to do
the following, have a tax haven as a permanent resident.

[1:24:45 PM] steve k: live in cape town, 3 months a year, live in Canada the maximum allowed
without causing any tax issues when I am here

[1:25:29 PM] steve k: or south Africa longer than 3 months, if I could find away without paying tax

[1:26:46 PM] Christian Makande: Alright

[1:32:39 PM] steve k: I am thinking , will need to find an offshore entity to purchase the property
with a family member , as you said as a director

[1:32:45 PM] steve k: for property in south africa

[1:33:48 PM] Christian Makande: What sort of tax are u refering to ?

[1:34:39 PM] steve k: I want to be deemed a resident of the tax haven, not south Africa or canada

[1:34:56 PM] Christian Makande: Alright

[1:35:01 PM] Christian Makande: I get your point now

[1:35:10 PM] steve k: form a company in the tax haven, and use that to purchase a corporation in
south Africa that owns the realestate

[1:36:13 PM] Christian Makande: But still that etity will need to pay Value Added Tax in South Africa

[1:36:43 PM] steve k: any way we can avoid that

[1:37:19 PM] Christian Makande: Yu cant avoid it. That transaction will be going on on South African
land thus the tax laws of South Africa are applicable

[1:37:54 PM] Christian Makande: remeber that was he whole point I suggested that youregister a
comany in South Africa because you will be extempted

[1:38:01 PM] Christian Makande: from VAT

[1:45:48 PM] steve k: on personal property as well ?

[1:46:12 PM] steve k: so what about a south African corporation owned by a foreign corporation ?

[1:47:32 PM] Christian Makande: A south african corporation can only be owed by natural persons
not juridistic persons
[1:53:34 PM] steve k: but I am not a resident of south africa

[1:54:14 PM] Christian Makande: Yes, but you can be a director on a south African comany like i said.

[1:54:29 PM] steve k: ok just not own it

[1:54:29 PM] Christian Makande: But you just cannot be a signatory at the bank

[1:55:34 PM] Christian Makande: You can own the property. You just cannot do banking duties
because you do not have a temporary residence permit. thats why I said use a south african resident
as a director also so that they can perform bank duties

[1:56:44 PM] steve k: ok I am getting confused, you said it can only be owned by a natural person

[1:57:22 PM] Christian Makande: a natural person means a living person...someone like u. A juridisic
person means a company

[1:59:47 PM] steve k: ok, but I can get a local person to own the property but be a director ?

[2:00:24 PM] Christian Makande: Remember the property will be owned by a comany and u wll have
90% shareholding in the company

[2:00:42 PM] Christian Makande: the peroperty will be ownd by the company not an indovidual

[2:00:44 PM] steve k: and the other 10%

[2:00:57 PM] steve k: who will own that

[2:01:04 PM] Christian Makande: the other 10% is the other director

[2:01:14 PM] Christian Makande: remember you will be 2 directors

[2:01:25 PM] Christian Makande: you and the other local south african person

[2:02:33 PM] steve k: ok

[2:02:49 PM] steve k: great stuff again, can you make a word doc please

[2:02:53 PM] steve k: this is good stuff
