We moved over to Oz last November and rented our house out. The house is up for sale anyway but just wondered about tax implications of the sale. Is the sale subject to CGT ? We have not bought here yet. We are on permenant resident visas and as such are Oz tax residents.
Also what about any increases due to exchange rate movements.
Finally if tax is applicable is it against value or total profit in house sale ?
Please send me a Private Message (click on my name to the left of this posting) with your name and email address, and I will send you our Tax FAQ schedule. It should help.
Best regards.
