CAN SOMEONE PLEASE TELL ME IF AT TAX TIME DO I ONLY GET TAXED ON THE PROFIT I MAKE OUT OF MY IPS IF SO WHAT ARE THE COST THAT CAN COME OUT OF THIS PROFIT[?][?]
Murmer, there are many costs to do with owning a IP that are tax deductable
for eg
Loan interest
Rates
Insurance
Land Tax
Manag Feesthe rent you receive is obviously tax assessable, so in the end you add up your profit, and that is what is your tax assessed on the property
there are also non cash deductions such as depreciation of furniture and fitting and hot water system etc, houses after 1985 can also be depreciated at certain rates,
hope this helps

Hi Murmur,
You probably know this…basically you get taxed on your income from the property; and after deductions hopefully your assesable income is lowered and you are left with a profit (+ geared). If not, you get a tax refund from other sources…eg. job (- geared). And you probable know as well…that your profit is added to other sources of income and could raise your tax bracket etc.
