If you pull some of the equity out of one investment property to fund a deposit on another new investment property and borrow the rest, then at some point in the future move in to the new investment property, what happens as far as tax deductibility on the amount you used for the deposit. I know you couldn’t claim anything on the new amount borrowed but what about the deposit amount that is technically being claimed against the first investment property.
For example IP 1 worth $300k with a loan amount of $100k and you pull out $50k to fund a deposit on IP 2 bringing the loan amount on IP 1 to $150k.
IP 2 is worth say $300k with new loan amount of $250k and the deposit amount from IP 1 of $50k.
If IP 2 then becomes a PPOR, I understand you couldn't claim the $250k as this was secured to IP 2. But what about the $50K from IP 1. Can this still be claimed against IP 1. Or do you not claim that amount as well given the money is technically tied up in IP 2 (now the PPOR) even though IP 1 is the security.
