Hello everyone, i'm another lurker who's come out of the closet to register
I've spent many hours reading old posts to educate myself but have not been able to find an answer to this question, so here goes my first post
If i have a LOC where my rent ($2,000 per month) goes into and my IP loan repayment ($1,200 per month) also comes out of, i understand that the interest on this LOC is tax deductable (because it's being used for income producing purposes).
What if i also have a certain amount ($200) each fortnight transferred into my ATM account which i use for personal daily expenses? Is the interest on this LOC still 100% tax deductable?
I'm guessing that because my rent is in excess of my ATM transfers, that it shouldn't be a problem?
Is this an ok way to structure things, or should i get my property manager to deposit the $200 directly into my ATM so as not to muddy the waters?
Thanks for any advice that can be made,
Dan
