Hi, Also posted this in the General Forum, but didn't get any response, so trying my luck here, thank you very much! What's the tax implication (CG not income tax) for renting out all rooms other the one I am occupying in a PPOR? Let's say, in a 3 bedroom house, if I rent out 2 rooms for 6...

Actually, after looking at the official website for that estate, it seems this is not the first release....i am actually wondering what happened to the 60 or so lots released first? Have they built houses on them or has anyone resold any?? I am just wondering what kind of CG it had for the...

What's the tax implication (CG not income tax) for renting out all rooms other the one I am occupying in a PPOR? Let's say, in a 3 bedroom house, if I rent out 2 rooms for 6 months period, then renting the whole house out while not claiming any other property as PPOR, then say 5.5 years later...

This situation is more for houses than units/townhouses...sure the prices of all properties all the way up to Gordon(if I may say) gone up heaps, the house prices really took off. One thing you are right asdf is that almost ALL of the buyers are YOUNG people (mostly young families), many of...

I don't personally like houses with low clearance and will not go anywhere near it -- unless it's significant value. accessibility and moist will always pose a problem.

Because it ain't going to happen :p

Thanks Medine. It's purely to minimize her involvement -- she will be gone overseas for a long time (from before auction date to after the settlement date), PLUS, since it's not her worry (ie. the house will get sold if I can not repay), so thought better leave her out of this. All I want...

Raddles, would you please explain the reason? As quoted from my link above: But since she will not be able to repay anything?:confused: Thanks again:)

I just spoke to someone from one of the financial institutions, and she insisted that my partner has to be listed as a borrower not a guarantor even though she's not servicing the loan?? This is confusing, because on the first page of their application form, you actually need to tick as...
