    Terry,Yes I agree with you, but still unsure if the ATO will give the same CGT exemption for the front property as they do for the rear property from the date of purchase until the date of subdivision.I haven't read anything that applies to my situation, but have found plenty of info on people who subdivide, continue to live in the old house and…[Read more]

    Hi Terryw,Yes I have gone through that website and in particular that document and the section 'Purchased To Use As Your Home', and from what I read, it still doesn't accurately reflect what my situation.

    From a financial point of new, there's no reason to rent out your current house, it will be positively geared. You'll be better off living in it, paying down the mortgage and then using the equity to buy 1 fully geared $225k unit. One question, do you have a marginal tax rate of 31.5% or greater? If you don't, then really, you'll be better off not…[Read more]

    Hi bigblueit,Thanks for sharing your thoughts on it… my only concerns is what we think is 'right and logical' , the ATO may have a different view.Have you sold both subdivisions without any issues? Your accountant and ATO didn't raise any eyebrows?If you are correct, and I certainly hope so, I agree there are great tax benefits.. and due to…[Read more]
