Hi all,
My house in sydneys west has just gone under contract. Prior to being sold an electrical fault was bought to my attention, nothing major, just that when they put a globe in the outside light the power would trip. The tennants were particularly difficult throughout the sales process as was the purchasing party. The real estate agent informed me that i must fix this fault prior ro settlement. My question is, if this is not contained in the sales contract am i obligated to do this? I know it only gonna be 2-300 but i already sold below what i was hoping for.
One more question - is the agents commission tax deductible even though i originally claimed the first home owners grant on the property prior to renting it out?
Thanks for your help!
