    hi guys, buying my first property, settlement soon, if i applied for the 1st home buyer’s grant, how long do i have to live in the house before renting it out as an investment property?

    am i better off not getting the grant since i won’t get a large tax deduction?

    as far as I know Just 6 months and the grant is worth more than the rent you would have received during that time
