Thx Jason. Good well written article. What’s missing in all of this tax talk is the fact most of the small time investors are just trying to make a living here. We’re not really in the game to provide brand new housing schemes. However, I’d be happy to pay my fair share of tax on any income I make on a property, if the tax rules allowed for every expense involved with buying an investment property to be claimed in the year the funds are spent! But maybe that’s a greenhorn thing to say.
