GST and small-scale property developments

Whilst the income tax is often front of mind, when it comes to small-scale property developments, GST should not be overlooked.

This session explores how GST can impact on such projects, including:

  • A review of recent ATO guidance and views

  • Distinguishing between commercial and private arrangements

  • The GST issues to consider for a property purchase, renovation, and then sale

  • Two new townhouses – live in one, rent one, how does the GST work?

  • How do property sale proceeds impact on the GST turnover test when determining if GST registration is required?

  • Can the margin scheme be useful for small- scale developments?
