If you don’tlive in it you pay land tax. The exemption only applies to a house you live in.

I recall some wider changes in nsw about a year ago. it got a fair bit of attention because schools, rail goods yards, police stations etc are very hard to sell until the zoning has been changed. In many cases gazzettal leads to an ALC.

As you don’t live in your family home you may be liable for land tax even if you don’tget income . This may also apply to the house that you intend to build – you are required to register for land tax even if you are below the threshold.

If you’on $80k + 1/2 share of rent you aren’t paying that much tax. If she is getting rent she probably qualifies for the low income offset, if you contribute $1k to her super the govt will match it. As far as i know most ‘working families’ qualify for part s and Part b cuts out over a different threshold.

It will come down to what the S149 (zoning) certificate says. If the council say it is subject to 1:100 flooding then it is possible it didn’t flood but you can always ask council for a flood map.

It is possible to have the purchaser’s details hidden if you have valid reason eg witness protection

Have you considered some of the industry funds eg cbus which have self managed options? & are low cost ..

To add to Michael’s post… Planning, planning, planning.

Time is money ie delays will cost you extra interest on your loans & extra rent. On a dcf basis it will slso impact on the irritable & npv of the project.

If you cannot devote your time (& when needed on site) then it soon becomes apparent that the savings vanish.

Tell the tenant to get themselves a car with more road clearance but seriously if the driveway is an issue then it is BC’s problem to fix not yours. Send the matter to the executive committee, get it on the agenda either for the regular exec meetings or for the AGM with a course of action to improve the situation for all owners.
