Past actual use isnt relevant to the vacancy rules other than making the property in use. This tax may apply to different extents in some states if a property is owned and not let or occupied. ie the definition is self explanatory ie VACANT. eg Vic = vacant for the preceeding 6 months in the preceeding calendar year. There is also a commonwealth FEE for vacant property that may apply. Vacant residential land tax | State Revenue Office Vacancy fee return for foreign owners | Australian Taxation Office If a property was unlivable a person may be absent but isnt occupying so land tax and other surcharges could be imposed.
