Hi all,
I've wandered around the site, but haven't seen anything conclusive on this. Looking for thoughts on tax deductibility of loan break costs on investment property loan.
In this case, break costs of approx $5k have been paid out of cash (i.e. not capitalised onto the existing loan). Should this be a tax deduction in the year paid (b/c incurred in the generation of the rental income), or included in the cost base for CGT purposes?
Anyone got some info around this from ATO/other source?
Cheers,
Ali
