I plan to move houses in a few years time but would like to keep my existing PPOR and convert it to an IP.
However, I am not sure what is the best way forward in terms of ensuring that the loan (on the existing PPOR) is tax-deductible when it becomes an IP.
My PPOR home loan is a “salary account” home loan product. My salary is deposited straight into the home loan, I spend with my credit card and then redraw money from the home loan to pay the credit card bills.
When it comes time to move into a new PPOR, there will be a significant amount of equity in the property which I would hope to redraw to put money into the future PPOR loan.
The problem is (from what I have read here) the existing “salary account” loan is not tax-deductible (even if my PPOR becomes an IP) as the loan was taken out originally for personal purposes and not for investment purposes. Is this correct ?
Is there any way that I can restructure my loan so that my existing PPOR loan can be tax-deductible when it becomes an IP later on?
Thanks in advance !
