To all persons knowledgeable about CGT & Stamp Duty,
I was at a Dolf de Roos sem the other night and he brought up how Australia has one of the hardest tax deals when it came to buying and selling property. His native NZ, had actually abolished stamp duty when GST came in. I can't remember what he said about CGT there. Anyway, it seems that a lot of countries don't have one or both of these 'taxes'. I would like to find out what people know about the setups in various countries re property related tax. Who has what and why they have it. What they had before, and what happened to make them change that situation.
This is all in regards to another statement by Dolf: 'You guys voted them in!' . How true. I wonder what we can do about that situation. Your knowledge would be appreciated.
