Description

You may need to pay land tax if you own land with an aggregate taxable value in excess of $300 000.

Aggregate taxable value is the total value of all taxable land that you own. For example, if you own two taxable properties with taxable values of $200 000 and $300 000 respectively, the aggregate taxable value of your land is $500 000.

You are regarded as the land owner if you:
