Hi,
Is loan interest deductible when an investment property is listed for sale vacant?
Tenant moved out in August, property listed for sale in September, property sold and settled in December.
Is interest deductible in the rental schedule for the whole period?
Thanks

No, because property is not rented or available for rent.
Interest adds to cost base as a holding cost.
