Subject: Quick HR thing - novated lease
Hi Sarah,
I've been looking into a novated lease for the Subaru Forester. It works out at $280/wk all-in and there's no cost or admin overhead for the business - Positive SP handle everything. I've attached a one-pager…
Or one of these in the same space
Any make, any model. Yes, including the second-hand one your mate's selling.
