Hello & a Merry Xmas to all !
What happened to Land Tax ???
Last year our 3 IPs on the south coast came to $15,000 below the threashold. Now the same places come to about $47,000 above the new threashold !
Tax Free Threashold was increased by 18%.
Land Tax Valuations were increased by +80%.
My tax bill will only come to about $900, but if I buy again in the same area the Land tax will come to $3000!!
Is this just money grabbing by the Carr Govt ?
With a potential $2000 increase in my annual land tax bill, I will be looking to Qld for my next IP.
What are other forum members views ?
