Ohh dear Astral, your desire to avoid tax has blinded you to how flawed your logic is. I can't begin to explain how fundamentally flawed your calculations are. First and foremost, let's begin with your statement of saving $105,000 a year in tax and how this equates to $1,050,000 over 10 years. Let's also assume you are referring to the highest tax bracket of 45%. In order to achieve a saving of $105,000 a year you would need a net deduction of $233,000 a year. This is the loss you have incurred from your great property portfolio... So each year you lose net $128,000. That is, the loss of $233,000 from your property portfolio minus the tax saving of $105,000 from the generous tax office. So no, you haven't saved a cent. In ten years you have lost over 1.28 million dollars through your fixation with negative gearing. Yes, the ability to reduce your tax is a benefit. But the real benefit lies in the possibility to realise capital gains which far outweigh the losses above.

Alright, my bad, instead of 3 rental properties.... that equates to 19 investment properties in the portfolio then so... calculate for 19 properties its a whopping good time
