    Hi Guys

    Was just wondering if Stamp duty and mortgage insurance was claimable for an investment property

    Hi James

    Stamp duty is added to the cost base when calculating CGT. So it's claimed when selling up. The ACT (and possibly NT) are notable exceptions.

    LMI is generally claimable over 5 years (or the term of the loan if it is shorter than 5 years).

    Cheers

    Jamie
