    Murmer, there are many costs to do with owning a IP that are tax deductable

    for eg

    Loan interest
    Rates
    Insurance
    Land Tax
    Manag Fees

    the 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.

    Another one which appears to have been missed is Building Write Off.
