The Capital Gain is the difference between the selling price and the cost base.

Most of this information can be found on the settlement statements.

You may receive a capital gains tax exemption if you have ceased to reside in your property for up to 6 years after you have left.


Where you have ceased to reside in your rental property and bought another principal place of residence the cost base will be the market value on the date that you left plus your selling expenses and improvements.
