i got a question on interest that is tax deductable.
for eg:
we buy 100k IP, borrow $80k, say for eg. interest paid is $5600, is this tax deductable?same scenario but have extra $30k to put into the mortgage. hence borrowed money is $50k. say interest paid is $3500, hence which amount is being able to deduct from tax? $5600 or $3500?
Hi Milen,
Rather than get into an explanation myself, you will more than likely find the info you require at the ATO’s website.
As a general comment – you cannot claim the interest if you haven’t actually incurred it as a cost
If this link doesn’t work try
http://www.ato.gov.au/ and follow the links through to rental properties
Cheers
KymThanks
hence the idea is that the excess fund is better of invested somewhere or put in CD?
