More than a property gains tax calculator

Most property gains tax calculators only provide a one-off estimate based on the numbers you enter today.

TaxTank is different. It’s the only software built specifically to help Australian property investors manage their investment property tax position year-round, not just when they’re preparing to sell.

As transactions flow into the platform, TaxTank tracks your rental income, expenses, depreciation, borrowing costs, capital improvements and property performance in real time. This means you’ll always have visibility over the factors that can impact both your annual tax position and future capital gains tax obligations.

Instead of waiting until tax time or relying on spreadsheets and manual calculations, you’ll have a complete picture of your investment property’s tax position whenever you need it. The result is better planning, fewer surprises and more confidence when making property investment decisions.

“I have been using TaxTank for over a year now to manage our property portfolio. We now proactively manage our income and expenses using the live bank feed allocations in TaxTank so there is little hands-on time needed from me.

It's literally about 10 minutes a week to allocate transactions and I'm on top of my paperwork which means no more spreadsheets or tax time stress.”
Tammy Van Diest
“Using TaxTank has ensured we have reduced costs and effort at the end of financial year, minimised tax paid as we can now track all expenses and income in one single system and peace of mind knowing we can find everything in one secure place.”
Amanda Thomas
“Ever since I've been using TaxTank, it has made life so much easier. I can't say more than this amazing feature of live bank feeds. It is amazing and a game changer! This has made almost the near impossible of recording all bank transactions now very possible. Another feature I enjoy using is the forward outlook on the depreciation of a property once the initial inputs are stored. It has been an enjoyable and pleasurable experience using TaxTank. Highly recommend.”
