    A good friend of mine is divorcing and wants to turn his PPOR into an IP. I want to buy his partner out so we will own the property together, but I also want to make sure his CGT discount is protected when we sell in the future (we are going in with a fixed timeframe for holding the property). We only want to hold for 6 years as the timing works with other projects, will his CGT discount be protected ?

    thanks Logan
