Hi,
I’m looking to purchase a corner lot with an existing dwelling.
I intend to immediately design & build a new dwelling on the back of the lot and subdivide - turning the new dwelling into my PPOR.
Things to note:
- To help fund the project and pay the mortgage I would like to immediately rent out the existing dwelling.
- I currently do not have a PPOR.
- I would like to elect the vacant land/building envelope for the new dwelling as my PPOR using the 4 year rule. (Not sure if this is possible?)
The question:
If I live in my new PPOR for 12+ months upon completion - would the full main residence CGT exemption still apply?
Thanks!!
