Habitual buying and selling of land

The rules that tax certain sales of land contain exclusions from tax for people who use that land as their main home, residence or business premises

However, these exclusions are not meant to apply where the taxpayer has a “regular pattern” of buying and selling land used as a main home, residence or business premises.

There are concerns that the current regular pattern restrictions are not working as intended

The tax policy consultation document, Habitual buying and selling of land, discusses those concerns and proposes possible solutions.
