Frequently Asked Questions

How is stamp duty calculated?

Each state applies its own tiered schedule to the greater of the purchase price or market value.

What is negative gearing?

When rental deductions exceed rental income, the loss offsets other taxable income, reducing overall tax.

What is the six-year absence rule?

A former main residence can be rented for up to six years and still be treated as your main residence for CGT.

Do foreign buyers pay extra duty?

Yes. NSW and Victoria charge an 8% foreign buyer surcharge; Queensland charges 7%.
