Hi Guys,
First time poster.
I purchased an IP in November last year which was super run down and spent around 3 months renovating it. Until now I assumed the interest payed on an investment property was 100% taxable however now Im not sure.
The loan on the house is interest only and was always to fund an investment property.
I am interested to know whether or not the interest I paid on the property for the first three months is deductable as, during that time I didnt have the property listed (it wasnt in a livable state).
Can anyone advise?
Cheers.
