Dear All,
1. I will like to find out under the Victorian laws, if the purchasers have bought an unit apartment off-the-plan, using their names and the "or/and Nominess" Clause, and they subsequently wish to assign the sale and purchase contract to another set of new buyers who are relatives during the settlement time,
a. is this legally allowed under the Victorian Housing Laws?
b. would there be some new additional stamp duties payable incurred?
c. is this arrangement considered as a sub-sale or an on-sale arrangement under the Victorian Housing Laws?
d. does Capital Gain Tax applies here in this context?
e. What happens when the expected market value for the unit apartment should come lower than than actual purchase price? Can the new buyers claims tax losses for their unit investments under the Victorian Housing Laws?
2. Please note that this involves a real life case presently under considerations.
3. Can the relevant members who are practising conveyancing in Victoria and other more experienced/better informed members, kindly advise us accordingly, please.
4. For the members' general education as well as for my own personal self-education and problem-solving purposes, please.
5. Thank you.
regards,
Kenneth KOH
