Budget 2026 · What changed

Your Profit Gets Split in Two

From 1 July 2027, the tax rules will change. A valuer works out what your property is worth on that exact date. This splits your profit into two parts and each part is taxed differently

1 July 2027 - the split point
Before 1 July 2027

The Old Rule Still Applies

This is the profit you already made. It's only half-taxed, just like today
( 50% CGT Discount ).

After 1 July 2027

The New Rule Applies

Profit made after that date works differently. What you paid gets bumped up for inflation (called CPI indexation) instead of getting the 50% discount.

example
You bought it for$500,0002018
It's valued at$1,050,0001 July 2027
You sell it for$1,200,0002033

$550,000 before 1 Jul 2027 · half taxed

$150,000 (21.4%) after 1 Jul 2027 · new way

In total, you made $700,000. But it's split into two parts

Your two options

Two Ways to Work Out Your Tax

You won't know which one is best until you check both - that's why getting a valuation matters

Get a valuer to check

Option A

A valuer works out what your property was worth on 1 July 2027.

Uses your property's real value, not a guess.

Lets you compare it against Option B and pick the better one.

Compare Option A and B & choose what is best for you

Let the ATO guess

Option B

The ATO assumes your property grew by the same amount every year.

Ignores what really happened to your property's value.

You can't compare it to anything without a valuation.

You have no option to compare

Check both. Then choose.

Without a valuation, you only have Option B - with no way to compare.

Skipping it could cost you thousands in extra tax

Why it's not simple

Getting the Best Outcome Involves More Than One Calculation

Choosing between the certified valuation and the ATO formula is just the start. Your final CGT bill depends on several layers and each one affects the next

1 July 2027 split value

Sets the baseline - certified valuation or ATO formula.

50% discount - Phase 1

Higher split value = more gain in the 50% discount era.

CPI indexation - Phase 2

Higher split value = larger indexed cost base = less taxable gain.

Capital improvements

Each renovation indexed separately from the date it was spent.

ATO valuation methodology

What the ATO Requires in a CGT Valuation Report

Not every valuation qualifies. The ATO has specific requirements - an agent's appraisal or online estimate will not meet them

1

Registered Valuer

Signed by a valuer with current state registration.

2

Correct Date

Market value on or around 1 July 2027 - clearly stated.

3

Comparable Sales

Supported by actual sales - not an automated estimate.

4

Audit-Ready Report

Methodology, comparable sales and professional opinion included.

Desktop vs In-Person

We get you one of each

Desktop Valuation

Remote, fast, lower cost. Suitable for straightforward properties.

In-PersonRecommended

Physical inspection. Carries more weight in an ATO audit.

ATO will accept

Valuation date clearly stated
Registered valuer's signature
Comparable sales evidence
Professional opinion of value

ATO will not accept

Agent's appraisal
Online automated estimate
Bank or mortgage valuation
Council rates notice

We recommend In-Person for CGT

Carries more weight in an audit - the valuer assesses condition and improvements that data alone cannot capture.

Retrospective valuation?

May be accepted if methodology is correct - but typically produces a lower estimate. Any uncertainty is resolved in the ATO's favour.
