Frequently asked questions
Can I claim all interest on an investment loan?
Only to the extent the borrowed money is used to produce rental income and the property is rented or genuinely available for rent.
What happens if I redraw for a private purchase?
The private redraw creates a non-deductible portion of the mixed loan. Paying down the loan later does not automatically turn that private portion back into rental debt.
How do joint owners split rental interest?
Co-owners generally claim rental income and expenses according to their legal ownership interests. This calculator applies the ownership percentage you enter.

Straight-line apportionment estimate only. Mixed loans with fluctuating balances require transaction-level records; refinancing, construction periods and non-commercial arrangements need separate review.
