Hi.
An article in today's Fin Review argues that the 50% reduction in capital gain for taxation purposes, is at risk if the property is negatively geared for the duration of ownership.
That if bought for speculative purposes, or capital gain, and never making a profit throughout the period of ownership - the CGT discount may be at risk.
The article also says the issue is hugely political and may not be enforceable - but does anyone have an opinion about this issue?
