Hi All,
Not sure if this the right place to start this thread, but I just wanted some of the forums opinions on the FHOG in the following scenario.
Assume I purchase a house/townhouse with like a granny flat. The granny flat and the house are NOT separately metred for water/gas/electricity but they do have their own entrances, obviously all on one title, ie you couldn't purchase them separately.
Assuming I wanted to live in one and rent the other out, would this still be classed as my PPOR. I would be living there, and it would be my PPOR as far as I am concerned for all purposes, so as far as I am concerned I would be meeting their residency criteria of occupying the home as my PPOR for a continous period of at least 6 months (I'd just have someone else in here with me paying rent).
What do you think the SRO would be likely to do, if anything, if they discovered this? should I wait 6 mths before getting someone in to pay rent (just to be sure to be sure?
Just looking for people's opinions.
Thanks
Willy
