Plain English Guide

All plans

No accounting degree required.

CGT legislation is complex. ClearGain makes it accessible. Every metric, badge, and financial figure in the platform has an inline tooltip explaining exactly what it means in plain English. The Plain English Guide panel covers eight key topics — from what CGT is to how CPI indexation works — all written for investors, not accountants.

  • Inline tooltips on every financial metric and badge
  • 8-topic Plain English Guide panel — accessible from the dashboard
  • Expandable explanations for CGT, grandfathering, cost base, CPI, negative gearing, and more
  • Dual-level explanations: practical summary + full detail
  • Persistent disclaimer on all calculation outputs

Plain English Guide

What is CGT?

Capital Gains Tax is the tax you pay when you sell an investment property for more than you paid for it.

What is the CGT cliff?

1 July 2027 is the date when the new CGT rules take effect for properties bought after Budget night.

What does 'grandfathered' mean?

If you bought before Budget night, you keep the old 50% discount rules.

What is CPI indexation?

Your cost base is adjusted for inflation before calculating your gain — so you only pay tax on real profit.

What is negative gearing?

When your property costs more to hold than it earns in rent.
