Just to make sure I am not missing the point...
Say I have a investment property with a value of $1m, and loan of $800k (80% LVR), along with a proper offset account.
5 years later, I have $100k in my offset account. At that point, I go to my bank and draw down the additional equity of $200k on my property and place it in my offset account (as property is now valued at $1.3m). So essentially I now have:
$1.3m House value
($1m) Loan
$0.3m Offset account
Can I then subsequently withdraw the $0.3m, and claim interest deductions on the full $1m loan? What if I move this money $0.3m into my PPOR offset account?
