The bright-line rule only applies to residential properties bought on or after 1 October 2015. Under this rule you'll pay tax on income you earn if you buy and sell a house within two years, unless you're selling your main home or another exception applies.
What does "main home" mean under the bright-line rule?
You could think of your main home as your family home. Your main home is the property you have the greatest connection to.
To be eligible for the main home exception to the bright line rule, you need to have used a property as your main home for 50% or more of the time that you've owned it.
You also need to use more than 50% of the area of the property as your main home. (The area that counts as your main home generally includes things like your yard, gardens and related buildings like the garage.)
This is an important point if you rent out a granny flat attached to your house or part of your house is used as a business. As an example, if you use 40% of a property as your home and 60% as a rental property, you won't be eligible for the main home exception if you sell that property.
If you live in more than one property, you'll need to decide which is your main home. To decide if a property you own qualifies as your main home, think about:
- where your personal property is kept
- the amount of time you spend living in each house
- where your immediate family lives
- where your social ties are strongest
- your use of the home
- what other ties (for example:employment, business, economic) you have with the surrounding community.
楼主可以对照一下以上的规定, 很容易判断是否要交税。
