Tax Implications
Saving on, and legally minimising your tax through various tax implications is one of the greatest benefits offered to the property investor.

Capital Gains Tax Essentials
Capital gains tax (CGT) is the tax you pay on a capital gain. It is not a separate tax, just part of your income tax. The most common way you make a capital gain (or capital loss) is by selling assets such as real estate, shares or managed fund investments. Managed funds also distribute capital gains you must report.
