    Thanks for that, I have contacted the ATO about it and they've listed the thing's I can claim for if I had someone board/lodge with me.  You can claim a percentage of interest, rates etc. based on the percentage of the house for their sole use.  I will convert my PPOR to an IP in a few years, I took out a split loan 50% P&I and 50% IO, so I don't think I need to go through the hassles of having boarders in the meantime.

    My understanding is that if you are living together, one partner can not charge the other rent, because you would be living together in a de facto relationship. However I can't find anything that backs this up on the 'needle in a haystack' ATO website.

    Thanks so much for all your help, it doesn't seem worth all the hassle, might wait till I purchase my first IP!
