The build-to-rent exemption aims to increase the availability of rental properties in WA by providing a 50 per cent exemption from land tax for up to 20 years for eligible developments.

The exemption will apply to developments that:

  • contain at least 40 self-contained dwellings available for three-year residential leases
  • are owned by the same owner or group of owners and be managed by the same management entity and
  • are completed between 12 May 2022 and 1 July 2032.

The exemption will be available from the 2023-24 assessment year.

More information and an application form will be available soon on the land tax exemptions web page.
