Frequently Asked Questions

Can I claim my mortgage interest on my rental property?

Mortgage interest may be deductible where the borrowing is used to generate rental or investment income, subject to your circumstances and current tax rules. We can help you understand how the rules apply to your situation.

What expenses can property investors claim?

Depending on your circumstances, potentially deductible expenses may include eligible interest, property management fees, insurance, rates, repairs and other allowable property-related expenses. The deductibility of an expense depends on the nature and use of the property and the applicable tax rules.

What is negative gearing?

Negative gearing generally occurs when the deductible expenses associated with an investment property are greater than the rental income it produces. We can help you understand the tax treatment and how it affects your overall position.

Do you help with Capital Gains Tax?

Yes. We can help you understand the potential tax implications of selling an investment property, including Capital Gains Tax considerations.

Do you help with multiple investment properties?

Yes. We can provide accounting and tax support for investors with multiple properties and help keep your property income, expenses and tax records organised.

Do you work with trust structures?

Yes. We can provide accounting and tax support for eligible property investment structures, including trust arrangements. The appropriate structure depends on your individual circumstances and should be considered before acquiring property.

Can you help me with my first investment property?

Yes. We can help you understand the accounting and tax considerations associated with your investment property and explain what records you should maintain.

No. Although we are Melbourne based, we provide online accounting and tax services to clients across Australia.
