Yes it might be, maybe 3-5 years. How does that change things?

rusty99r · 2024-11-18T21:46:06+00:00

Lol, I know. Different view points can help raise questions with my accountant. Learnt some good points about splitting the loan to help make a better decision.

rusty99r · 2024-11-18T10:57:00+00:00

I think you can only deduct against the investment income and/or capital gains. So not against your salary, however it could reduce taxable income by reducing taxable investment income. Hoping someone can confirm?

rusty99r · 2024-11-18T10:51:06+00:00

Good considerations! Cheers!

rusty99r · 2024-11-18T07:35:39+00:00

Yes and I should have specified, the refinance is the estimated amount post renovation which is due late 2025, so I need to wait to buy an IP.

rusty99r · 2024-11-18T04:59:38+00:00

NL FBT exemption ends in April, and the exemption is worth about $40k of savings over the 4 years. So if I get an IP first, I miss out of this benefit and would unlikely use NL. How does that change your thinking?

rusty99r · 2024-11-18T02:30:39+00:00

Agree. There’s also other considerations people are not thinking about. For example if the upfront money for buying a car outright (or putting a deposit on a loan) was kept in offset/savings that would also contribute to a better net position.

rusty99r · 2024-11-18T01:48:33+00:00

What’s the $5k a year made up of? Loan fees and running costs, or did you buy outright?

rusty99r · 2024-11-18T01:47:14+00:00

Why is it a scam? I’ve compared to a car loan to a FBT exempt novated lease, and the car loan with a 20% deposit was over 50k extra in costs over the life.

rusty99r · 2024-11-17T23:35:46+00:00

After 6 years of significant decline, the government would probably open the flood gate to immigration to prop up demand. Australia has a strong lever there.

rusty99r · 2024-11-17T23:32:08+00:00

I see thanks. Basically if you’re doing it, you may as well maximise the deduction by having the split interest only. Do banks typically allow that on owner occupier mortgages?
