    Hello
    have been offered a block of land adjacent to us by developer for 5% discount to valuation but can’t seem to make the numbers work.
    Purchase price 232750 +stamp duty. Local real estates reckon they can on sell for 240-260 its a larger block (694sqmetres) for this development which range 350 -700sq metres.
    Looked at build sell- couldn’t make a profit, flip block within six months( then have capital gains tax)over 12 months holding costs & rates become marginal. May be possible to get duplex permission as other duplex blocks in the estate.

    Any one else got another option?
    All opinions welcome.
    Thanks

    That’s a very small discount when looking at flipping, as purchasing and selling costs eat into most of the transaction, and whats left will be ravaged by tax.
