I am not clear from the ATO website if I can claim the first mandatory gas, electrical and smoke alarm safety inspections which need to be done before I rent out my house for the first time.
Can the cost of the inspections be an immediate deduction?
Can any works needed as a result of the inspections be a immediate deduction? e.g. a new smoke alarm is required
Can these inspections and any work be done before the property is advertised for rent to be able to be a deduction?
Thank you!
