Tax Time! Landlords ... know what you can claim
Share
Being informed and knowing what you’re eligible to claim can help make tax time a lot easier. While your accountant is there to guide you, it’s wise to do some preparation beforehand.
Here are a few common deductions you might be able to claim:
- Cleaning expenses (both internal and external)
- Advertising, accounting and bookkeeping fees
- Property management fees
- Council and water rates (if not paid by the tenant)
- Body corporate fees
- Insurance premiums
- TV and streaming services provided to tenants (e.g. Foxtel, Netflix)
- Lease preparation and registration costs
- Legal fees related to unpaid rent, property damage or breaches of agreement
- Borrowing expenses
This list serves as a general starting point. Be sure to speak with your accountant to confirm you’re claiming all eligible deductions and to help maximise your return on investment.
