    Used to see it a lot in retail. Not sure if it still happens but stores would have an arrangement with suppliers where they get invoiced a "full" amount - and they would show the customers "Look, see this is what we pay, and we only put 2% on top - we are giving you a crazy deal" (ever see "Cost + x%" in car dealer ads?).

    After they sell, they send a rebate request and the supplier gives a certian % (whatever the agreed markup was) back to them.

    It made for all sorts of interesting tax issues too (ethics and other legalities aside) where the original invoice happens in June and the rebate happens in July etc.

    @kierank don't worry the opportunity to buy MQR at a bargain price is coming. I'm in the cue waiting too.

    I assume you mean MQG, not MQR :D.

    At 5c, I am guessing MQR is at bargain basement pricing :p.

    Yeah makes Sense!Junk Bond!
    Having said so,I am of the opinion that there is limited scope for low yield property to grow (Affordability/lending in post APRA era), but if it is a growing market then low yield property(generally low price point) has higher upside.

    But you would assume land component is adjusted accordingly? Land tax is based on land value not property value.

    It's all psychology. You feel good if CG is there but bad if negative. Sometimes looking at valuation is worse than selling at a loss in a dropping market.

    There is a lag both ways on the impact of price movements on Land Tax, as properties are valued for land tax at 30 June but not levied until the following 31 December. Where the market has turned, more recent sales would indicate a different scenario but are irrelevant to the valuation date. Likewise, in NSW, the effect of the movement is cushioned by averaging 3 years values so there is not a large spike if there's boom or bust.
