    Granny Flat Investment on PPOR?

    If building a GF, for investment purposes, on your PPOR. How would this work for tax purposes? I'm assuming the loan interest for the GF, if there was one taken out, would be tax deductable. How would this affect everything else regarding the PPOR for tax purposes? CG repurcussions?

    Renos needed for a small bathroom

    Tiles have started cracking/expanding in the bathroom. I'm assuming this is due to moisture seeping through behind somehow or possibly from leaking pipe? It was actually cracking so fast and loud the other night it woke me up. :eek: When I first moved in there were a few tiles that were loose...

    AMO Zero20 Home Load

    Came across this a few days ago... From what I understand of this loan, you can use it as the deposit for a purchase, hence eliminating any LMI needed. I'm not sure what the catches are if any, but if this paid off fairly quickly, that would help reduce the amount you would have to pay back...

    What to do first?

    Would you put down a conditional offer and wait for the vendors agreement before you have a solicitor/conveyancer look over the contract and other legal documents? Or would you have the contract and stuff looked over before you put down an offer?
