A landlord\u2019s most common deductible interest payments:<\/span>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Mortgage interest payments to banks and other financial institutions on loans used to acquire rental property<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Mortgage interest payments to financial institutions on loans used to improve rental property<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Interest paid on credit cards for goods or services used in the rental property<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li><b>Depreciation<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">: One of the most advantageous, yet confusing, tax deductions for landlords involves depreciation. \u00a0While the actual cost of a rental property is not fully deductible, landlords can deduct a portion of the cost of the property over several years. Landlords will also find that money spent to improve the property is depreciated as well. \u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li><b>Legal &amp; Professional Fees<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">: Landlords can deduct fees paid to attorneys, accountants, property management companies, business managers, and other professionals. \u00a0These fees are typically deducted as operating expenses as long as the fees are paid for work related to your rental activity. \u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li><b>Operating Expenses:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> \u00a0Purchases made for supplies or subscriptions used for managing your rental properties are tax deductible. \u00a0This can include office supplies like pens, paper, ink, legal forms, or management books. \u00a0And also subscription based services like phone bills or web-based property management software. \u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<hr \/>\n<p>Every landlord (and every individual) must keep excellent records and documentation of any expense you plan to claim as a deduction. \u00a0Business related deductions can trigger the IRS to perform an audit because unfortunately people have taken advantage of the system. \u00a0If you fail to provide proper receipts and cannot justify the business necessity of each expense, you can face serious consequences.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You should always consult a tax professional, CPA, or attorney familiar with rental properties in your state if you have any questions or are unsure of any part of the tax reporting process. \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Additional Resources:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.irs.gov\/Businesses\/Small-Businesses-&amp;-Self-Employed\/Tips-on-Rental-Real-Estate-Income-Deductions-and-Recordkeeping\" target=\"_blank\">Tips on Rental Real Estate Income, Deductions, and Recordkeeping<\/a> &#8211; IRS.gov<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/turbotax.intuit.com\/tax-tools\/tax-tips\/Rental-Property\/Real-Estate-Tax-and-Rental-Property\/INF12039.html\" target=\"_blank\">Real Estate Tax and Rental Property<\/a> &#8211; TurboTax.Intuit.com<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Owning rental property provides unique tax benefits to savvy investors. \u00a0When you rent a property to others, you must report the collected rental payments as taxable income. \u00a0However, the IRS outlines special opportunities to deduct expenses related to your property and rental income.
