New Land Tax Rules
Here's yet another reason why QLD is the better choice for property investment.
You may have seen NSW and VIC are increasing land taxes to the combined tune of over $6 billion.

What are the new tax laws and how do they affect investors
NSW Land Tax Increase:
NSW is set to increase land taxes for property investors by $1.5 billion. Starting in 2024, the tax-free threshold for land tax will be frozen at $1.075 million and no longer indexed annually in line with property price changes.
This means that as house prices rise, more properties will be subject to land tax, raising property owners' costs. The Real Estate Institute of NSW warns this will cost property owners thousands of dollars annually, forcing them to look elsewhere for investment opportunities.
Victoria's Tax changes:
In March 2024, Victoria announced a $4.74 billion increase in land taxes, severely reducing investor interest.
The tax-free threshold for investment properties in Victoria has been cut from $300,000 to $50,000. A new yearly flat fee has been added and tax rates on properties over $300,000 have been increased.
This has already contributed to a slowdown in Victoria's property market, with more landlords selling and fewer investors buying.
What does it mean for QLD investors
For QLD investors, this is a golden opportunity. The tax system in QLD makes it an attractive destination for property investment, especially as more investors from NSW and Victoria look for better options.
