Usually, rents go down when property prices drop so a lot is relative.

If Today Tonight’s comments did not make sense, don’t sweat it. You need to talk jibberish to understand their propaganda most of the time.

You can’t do that. It is not how the money is secured that makes it deductible, it is the purpose of the funds. In your example, the purpose is to pay down your owner occupied home and therefore it is not deductible.

If you had the investment property in different names though, you could do some amazing things with loans, etc.

I would sign the one year lease without an option period and once it is signed, I would inform the dentist that the lease will not be renewed at expiration and spend the next year finding a replacement tenant.

Forget the rental guarantee and find another agent. Lower your rent to get some income out of the properties. Also, your properties are not the only ones not growing around Australia. You can’t blame anyone for this.

Kiwi,

About Baycorp, my point was that YOU, the vendor, can not list the wrapee.

A quick question for Wessy, why would you use a P&I loan on your investment property?

My point is that if it was returning less than what you are paying it would be deductible.
