Internet Domain Name Properties

 

Achieve Cash Income and Capital Gains on Internet Property!

 

Internet "web addresses" also known as "Domain Names" or "URLs") have in recent years become an increasingly popular investment. 

 

Family Superannuation Funds investing in Internet Property see it as similar to real estate. 

 

Experts speak of "Internet Property" and compare it to Real Estate "Brick & Mortar Property". 

 

Like Real Estate, the internet has prime properties such as News.com.au, Cars.com.au, IBM.com, CNN.com

 

 

 

Similar to Real Estate Property, Internet Domain Name Properties provide capital growth and annual income:

 

  • Internet domain names are in limited supply = "Land, they are not making any more".
  • Value of the actual domain name itself = "land value" or property value
  • Popular web sites = land Improvements ...
  • Lease income from a business operating on a good domain name = property rent
  • Capital appreciation of a domain name = property value increase

 

Internet Domain Name Properties are an allowed investment for Self-Managed Super Funds (SMSF) and can give provide both cash income and capital gains on Internet Property!  Income and capital growth can come from:

 

  • Leasing the domain name for use by other businesses
  • Selling the domain name for a profit
  • Regular income from advertising on the domain names

 

Let us help you achieve cash income and capital gains with Internet Property!

 

  • You buy a package of Internet Domain Name Properties consisting of 50, 100 or 250 domain names.  We can offer you themed packages grouped by category, eg:
    - Global ".com" domain names      - Australian domain names   - New Zealand domain names
    and/or themed packages, eg:
    - Sport               - Media          - Hospitality         - Fishing
    - Environment    - Ethical         - Low Carbon Footprint          - etc.
    Please see packages below!

  • You or your superannuation fund get full ownership and title to these Internet Domain Name Properties.  You can "warehouse" them and sell them at a later date when their value has appreciated.  In 2007 alone the trade value of "dot.com" domains increased by 57%, the average capital growth of all domain name types was 7.8%.  Trading in existing domain names is increasing; the leading UK domains trader Sedo turned over £27m in 2007!

  • Additionally, you can have us manage your Internet Domain Name Properties to get a regular income.  This income is derived from "mini-sites" with advertising that we will run on each of your domain names. The income is paid monthly to you or your superannuation fund after our administration costs are deducted.

  • Should you wish to realise the value of some or all of your Domain Names, you can list them for sale at the leading Internet Domain Name brokers Sedo, etc.  Alternatively, we will be happy to manage the sale for you.

As you have sole title and ownership of your Internet Domain Name Properties, no annual fees are payable to us.


However, you do need to pay renewal fees to the official domain name registrar, usually every 1 or 2 years.  Note that failure to do timely renewal may lead to the loss of a domain name.


Should you wish us to manage your Internet Domain Names, we will set up a mini-site with income-producing advertising on each of your domain names.  The advertising income may cover the renewal costs and may also provide a positive cash flow and annual income. We will also ensure timely renewals on your behalf.

 

We are happy to work with your Tax Agent to ensure that the purchase of your Internet Properties package is transacted according to current accounting standards and SMSF rules.

 
  • The prices for the Inter-net Property Domain Packages are set as listed in middle column. They include all fees and charges as well as GST.

  • Once you have purchased a Internet Property Domain Package, we will transfer the domains into your name (or the name of your superannuation fund) within 3 working days at no cost.

  • As the Internet Property Domain Package is then your property, no further fees or costs are charged by us.  However, you are then fully responsible for the management and renewal of your domain names.
