2027 tax changes

What the 2027 rules mean here.

Likely new dwelling

Likely to qualify as a new residential dwelling

This is being sold before completion, so a first buyer is the kind of purchase the carve-out is aimed at — it keeps the 50% CGT discount and stays negatively gearable. Treasury's exposure draft proposes a property acquired within 24 months of a certificate of occupancy being issued, but the test is set by a ministerial instrument that has not been made. Confirm eligibility in writing before you rely on it.

Completion: Estimated completion mid 2026
Construction stage: Under Construction
Completes after 1 July 2027: No

Why it matters: a qualifying new residential dwelling keeps the 50% CGT discount, sits outside the 30% minimum tax, and stays negatively gearable. An established dwelling bought after 12 May 2026 does none of those things. That gap is worth real money, and it is a question to settle in writing before you sign — not one a listing can answer.

How we help you buy well

When a development looks right, the detail matters.

A development page can help you identify a project worth investigating. If you want independent support on a specific purchase, Breige can discuss a separate buyer-side engagement to help assess the builder and project, compare the proposed price, negotiate terms and navigate the steps through to settlement.
