It's us taxpayers. Have you seen how much stamp duty costs here? And retroactive payroll tax?

Surprised we don't pay GST on the stamp duty and stamp duty on the GST.

Stamp duty is a pain in the *** tax too on things like property, because it disincentivises you to move around, you'd cop a pretty serious hit if you sold your property and bought another to move into in another area and you did this say every few years to capitalise on opportunities in other areas.

So are you saying… Demerit points won in Vic don’t go against your NSW license? Do you have a Vic licence? Don’t the points get linked as it were between states What does this mean for me As you know nsw throws on double demerit points each holiday and long weekend period If I get a ticket in say Byron the points don’t go against my Qld license? |

You should be able to sell your house in Melbourne and move to a regional capital without incurring stamp duty at all, more people would be mobile and it would encourage decentralisation of our capital cities. Rather than pay 6 figures in stamp duty to capitalise on opportunities in other areas of the state, you'd just stay in Melbourne and forgo those opportunities, who the ****s going to pay 6 figures stamp duty for a career opportunity. If that cost wasn't there you'd see people more willing to be mobile and move around rather than establish themselves in an area then stay there until retirement. Makes it very difficult for regional areas to attract talent/skills, thats why they're calling for visas to force migrants out to regional areas for X amount of time, but all thats going to do is they'll go out for the minimum period then move back to Melbourne. |

That's true, but I decided against it. New build houses are overpriced and usually not the best quality. I guess the equation changes depending on the area you are in, but for the areas I own property in it's not really worth it to build new.

Franco, why would the Govt make it easy for people to move and buy properties, who would then employ locals to renovate those properties and inject cash flow into the economy with tax paid on wages and gst on purchased items to improve the property ect.
That would be silly as they would raise more in tax in a positive way, than in preventing all this with stamp duty. All we need are governments that know how to run a business successfully and work for the greater good of the community. Instead we have groups of numskulls, that couldn't run a Mr Whippy Van at a profit on a busy beach in the middle of summer with no competition.

I didn't realise the posted speed limits didn't apply on a hill: either accelerating before it to maintain my speed up it or on the other side as I make my way down again. Don't want to wear out my brake pads unnecessarily.
Thanks AFF, you've taught me something new once again ![]()

In Australia you are only allowed to hold one licence and according these idiots that run the whole show, only live in one place. re the land only stamp duty subject. I bought cheap land, built a cheap cabin myself, designed to be able to be transported in 2 parts to another piece of cheap stamp duty land. There's plenty of ways around their bullsh*t requirements. As for the roads, I like to stay off them this time of year. When we were living full time on the road, Christmas and Easter was our time to find a non touristy bolthole.

But, given the demerit points weren't shared prior to the jv coming in to play, I don't think that's the determining factor in this instance.

What you posred doesn't allow for differing out of state number plates. If you have vehicles registered in Victoria, the Vic speed camera is going to send the fine to the garaged address and owner not the driver. The computer system have no way of linking the driver to the registered owner, let alone passing it onto another state authority.
