An apartment development in Tweed Heads West by Land and Housing Corporation NSW, currently construction complete.
This profile is built from public sources: council development-application records, the developer's own disclosures and, where available, the project's official website. Council records describe the approved use as: Residential flat building comprising 40 units for social housing (NRPP). Additional detail on record — amenities: landscaped garden, generous entry space; expected completion: Construction Complete. Buyers should independently verify current availability, pricing, inclusions, contract terms and expected completion timing before proceeding.

2027 tax changes
This building is finished, so whether it still counts as new turns on the date of the certificate of occupancy and when you acquire — not on the fact that it is newly built. 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.
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.
General information only, not tax advice. The calculators estimate basic income tax and exclude the Medicare levy, offsets and state taxes.
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.
