I've just purchased a small block of land in Far North Queensland, Australia. I'm not sure how things are run (tax-wise) from wherever you're from, but here if your property/whatever is not earning an income, then any expenditure on the property is not tax deductable.

I was wondering if there is anyone out there with suggestions for turning this block into an income producing property, without building a house on it.

I just took a peak at it. Man, that is BEAUTIFUL! To heck with the tax savings... pitch a tent on it, break out a cold six pack, and enjoy the view! Few things in this world are better than what you have there.

I jealous! Sad

Uhh golf course, R.V. park. Camp grounds. Put a Clubhouse on it and use it as a Company retreat, Build a spa on it, with beach huts. Put some amenities on it and charge people to swim at the beach in a nice area with say some cabana's. possibiltys are endless. Good luck.
