    Thanks MIW, i do agree with some of your points. Understandably when one is working hard to make a better life for the family then looking at a massive tax bill which the government meant to utilise it usefully but hasnt. Then one will feel better to have that money in their own pocket...

    thanks for the advice Andrew. Yes my current IPs are quite low in LVR. Are you saying that if i re-finance my existing loans to a bigger loan for each of the properties resulting in a higher LVR then i can claim more deduction in tax?

    Ouch - $30K being taxed and not much deductions to off set

    hahhaa great answer =) love it. yes, Scott corrected me before. Iam on $150K so it will be 39% tax bracket. I asked this question because many assumes that the fee of $300 is 100% deductible which is not the case as it comes under your tax bracket. thanks again Paul. looking forward...

    thanks Paul. one thing iam not 100% sure is for example if i approach a tax agent for 1 hour meeting and just say they charge $300. How much percent % of claim of the $300 will get back? My income is $150K so the tax bracket is 49cent per dollar. Will i get 49% back?
