There’s no CGT when you sell your family home, right? Well, not necessarily. Whilst the family home is one of the great tax-free investments most of us will ever make, the reality is that the main residence exemption from CGT is loaded with exclusions and caveats which can land an unsuspecting client with a nasty tax problem.

This webinar will offer a practical, example-driven overview of how the CGT main residence exemption works – and when it doesn’t work.

Amongst the topics to be covered:

What is the main residence?
The taxpayer owns more than one ‘main residence’
The absence rule
Main Residence where the property is partly used for income earning purposes
Market value – the first use to produce income rule
Subdivision
Main Residence in relation to farmhouses on farms
Main residence when the parties separate
Construction of dwelling on pre-CGT land
Death and the main residence
Foreign residents and the main residence exemption

Attendees can expect to complete the webinar with a detailed understanding of the main residence exemption so as to produce the best tax outcome whilst minimising the risk of ATO review or audit.
