I would be grateful if anyone can assist with this query.
a friend of mine bought 2 units in different locations. unit one he lives in and unit two he had letted out for the last 10 years since he bought it when it was new.
now he has asked the tenant to leave unit two, and he wants to renovate it, well at least put new flooring or carpet, paint and air con, and fix the garden and move into it . probably also at some stage change the garage into another room and put a carport and maybe put an extra toilet maybe spruce up a few bits in the kitchen and develop a few strorage places .
a
nd unit two he wants to then do the same the floors or carpet, paint and air con, and then let that out.
how can he find out if he will be able to claim the tax on both of the
renovations. one if repairs after a long term tenant and one is repairs in
order to let out.
