Which Method Costs You Less Tax?

From 1 July 2027, your profit gets split in two and each half is taxed differently. You can set the split with a certified valuation - or let the ATO's day-count formula set it for you. Put your numbers in and see both.

Before 1 July 2027

Half taxed

The profit you'd already made keeps the 50% CGT discount.

1 July 2027 · split date
After 1 July 2027

Indexed instead

Profit after that date loses the discount - your cost base is lifted by CPI instead.

What we've assumed: no depreciation or capital works deductions, no LMI, and no loan set-up costs. Those all move the real number. For the most accurate setup, and let The Property Accountant track them for you.
