All Topics / Help Needed! / Capital gains tax in WA?
Was told by someone that for properties in WA, there is a substantial tax imposed if a property was sold within a 5 year period to prevent speculation.
Can anyone help confirm if this is true and where I can view the ruling?
Thanks!
Not that I’m aware of?
As far as I’m aware you get the CGT discount after 12 months..some people have funny ideas though..

CGT is a federal tax administered by the ATO.
It applies equally across all states.Who told you such misleading info vernon, and on what basis was it referred to?
There is a 5 year rule but it applies to GST payable on the sale of a NEW property or house.
GST is due upon the first sale ( ie, not due on subsequent resale of the same property ), but if you keep the property for five years then GST is exempt.
