Hi All, first time poster.
A quick tax question.
From the ATO website I am aware you can claim a tax deduction for interest in respect of land purchased upon which you intend to build an investment property.
My question is can you also claim an income tax deduction for interest you are being charged on funds you have borrowed to build your investment property as the funds are drawn down during construction?
In a similar vein are the holding costs of the land (e.g. water rates and land rates) deductible for the period of time the investment property is being built?
Many Thanks for your considered thoughts on these questions.
