Well thats somewhat annoying. A buyer advocate the specialises in the buying investment properties, the property manager and the accountant were told what we were doing and were asked for advice specifically on how to structure this - and none of them brought up this loophole...

So frustrating, if you don’t ask the right questions they gloss over alot of things.
This has happened to me at every damn step of my separation with the solicitors, account managers, and mortgage brokers. So many things that could’ve made things smoother that I had no idea about.
Thankfully my old man and dear mumsy have plenty of experience leasing houses so atleast that went nicely.

It’s not been super great, we’ve been taken for a ride on a lot of it. Being locked out of tassie I’ve had to rely on others and we are being treated as an easy mark as a result. The tradesman do the little bits and bobs that I could have done myself is just doing things without asking and charging, the buyer advocate we hired to project manage it all isn’t pushing back or checking anything on my behalf which is literally his job. I knew the covid thing would cost me a bit in inflated work I couldn’t be there to check, but still grates...

I’m really pissed though the accountant specifically said anything being done to get it ready for tenants wasn’t claimable... That is literally his job to know this shit.

fckn tradies...

I'll bet they are all related and just looking after each other too.

Are any of the current works capital in nature?

I know they are... And there is diddly squat i can do about it! I had intended to take a couple of weeks off work and go down to do all this myself..

We were told the wallpaper removal (this really needed doing, wasnt rentable like it was) and painting in the bedrooms and floor polished was capital. Had a big plumbing repair done as well.Short version, we were told anything done to get it ready to rent was capital.

A good agent knows...it's always ready to rent, just might be for less than you'd like. Or maybe the holiday market was the spot...a rustic boutique Tassie get away offering.

Tassie would be no good for you this time of year with that pneumonia still hanging around.
