    I vaguely remember hearing somewhere in the last few days, that land rates are more expensive in Tasmania – does anyone know what kind of difference there is between the various states?

    Hi Just Allen

    You ask about the difference in price for Land Rates.

    Most answers have been to do with Land Tax.

    Are you talking about Council Rates?

    I don’t know about other states, but the Council rates for our Queensland properties – and these are units – are twice those of our houses in NSW, eg $1200/$660.

    Land tax threshold NSW $232,000 last I read.

    Hi Everyone

    Am I correct in believing that each state has Land Tax aswell as Council Rates – Two different things?

    When do you get a bill for Land Tax?

    I know the Council Rates bill comes each year based on the undeveloped value of the land.

    Cheers

    You will receive a notice from each states ‘Office of State Revenue’ or similar that will tell you what the Valuer General has valued the land proportion of your PPoR or IP.

    I will send you the rates (land tax) if you would like.

    Cheers

    Hi Rugbyfan

    Thankyou for the information about ‘Office of State Revenue’. Is this an annual bill?

    If there is a threshhold before you have to pay Land Tax, eg: 275,997 in Qld, then why does the spreadsheet have Land value Less than $4,000 paying .20cents in each $?

    What are the rebates? Tax?? How does this work?

    And yes I do live in a place called Deception Bay. No trick name.

    Is it too late to ask you to email me a copy of the Land Tax/Land rates info also please

    brookenbrett.at(symbol).ozemail.com.au

    Also, for those of you who are unfamiliar with Land Tax (as I was when I first purchased property) Land tax (in NSW) is done from your investment land holding as at December each year and like normal tax it is up to you to lodge the return. You are not sent any kind of notification or warning that it needs to be done and anything you owe will just keep accumulating until you finally put in a return (I personally did not find out about it until I went to sell an IP & the purchasers solicitor asked for proof that the Land Tax had been paid) I was then hit with 3 years land tax to pay prior to settlement. (Also note this also applies to owners of individual Strata Title Apartments as you own a certain % of the land)

    Needless to say I immediatley changed my Solicitor & Accountant as neither of them (who had both been consulted prior to my original property purchase) ever mentioned a word about this thing called “Land Tax”
    Just proves that you need a good team about you because “You don’t know what you don’t know![:)]

    Done check your inbox.

    Don’t forget about land tax on your PPOR in NSW too although the threshold is very high.
