Following the introduction of the new Land Tax Legislation, Marissa Schulze and Adrian Cartland went live on Facebook in December to discuss what these changes were, what they meant for investors and how to best structure property under the new law. The changes to thresholds, rates and the assessment of land tax will be effective as of 1 July 2020. These changes are discussed in detail in this video.
