Does any have an opinion on the following:
My understanding of the tax legislation is that if an off the plan purchase contract is entered into with the intention of selling the property upon completion at a profit, then the profit upon sale is taxed as normal taxable income rather than as a capital gain.
So does that mean that if the property is sold at a loss, that the loss is tax deductible against other income rather than being a capital loss ?
Thanks
