Landlord Tax Incentives
Land Tax Exemption*
If your property is being offered for rent at a rate that is a discount to market rent of more than 25%, and the tenant meets income eligibility requirements, you may fit the ACT Government’s criteria for a full land tax exemption.
ATO Tax Ruling**
We have an ATO class ruling that may allow us to provide you with a tax-deductible donation receipt for rent foregone by offering your property at below market rent. This would enable you to reduce your assessable income.
The tax incentives allow you to make a big difference without greatly affecting your finances.

SETTING THE RECORD STRAIGHT ON LAND TAX EXEMPTION
Some providers claim to be the only ones able to pass on a land tax exemption because they are licensed real estate agents. While that may be technically correct in their case, it’s important to know that Community Housing Providers (CHPs) like us are exempt from needing a real estate license – and we are fully approved to pass on the same land tax exemption to eligible property owners.
As a registered CHP, we meet rigorous standards for governance, compliance, and service delivery. Our charitable property management service provides you with the same financial benefits while ensuring your investment supports safe, secure housing and you play a direct role in tackling the housing crisis and improving rental affordability.
Rentwell is proud to offer you:
• Full access to land tax exemptions through our CHP status
• Transparent, ethical property management
• A genuine social impact in your community
