Explore the income tax and GST rules for lifestyle blocks, including business status, bright-line rules, interest deductibility, and GST registration.
Lifestyles blocks are often akin to taxation no man's land. Not a farm. Not a house. But something in between.
This webinar will work through the income tax and GST rules as they apply to lifestyle blocks.
We will consider whether lifestyle blocks are a business, and if so, at what point. We will look at the bright-line rules as they might apply. We will consider the interest deductibility rules as enacted and how those rules apply. We will look at whether the lifestyle block is a mixed-use asset or subject to residential loss ring-fencing.
We will work through the GST rules to help decide when a lifestyle block is a taxable activity and when it is not. The course will use practical examples to highlight the issues and the considerations.
