    Pulling some equity and so looking for your wise advices. So much thanks in advance

    Loan A - property 1: P&I OO
    Loan B - property 1: P&I OO equity drawndown from propery 1 to deposit for property 2
    Loan C - property 2: P&I INV

    Currently all interest are claimed as deduction for both places are rented out. As I am looking to extract equity from property 1 once again for car repayment (30%) and remaining (70%) parked in offset, I am a bit puzzled with the structure

    If I couldn’t get a fourth split (<200k split attracts higher rate) how best to go about drawing this down to:
    A. Keep the rate minimal (by having >200k loan, and retain OO status)
    B. Keep the tax deductibility status clean

    What I could think of is to top up loan A and create a interest tracker (might get unecessarily complex given offset and car payment) to apportion the nondeductible bit. But something does not feel right. Is A going to be “contaminated”? What would you do! I am sure the solution will be so simple but my puzzled mind just refusing to see it

    Which lender? Why can't you get an additional split?

    Change lenders and get one that allows more than 3 loan splits, simple.
