When you own a rental property, you will incur expenses from the time you buy it to the time you sell it. Some of these expenses are deductible, and some are not.

Can you still keep up with all the recent legal and tax changes? We're struggling. But here we've been introduced to yet another one.

In a bid to encourage more long-term affordable rentals to be built, the Government introduced another exemption to the interest limitation rules.

Yes! Those who have used an agent to manage their property before will know that their associated fees and commissions are tax-deductible.

The new tax changes have re-defined boarding properties that qualify for tax exemptions in order to claim interest payments as tax deductions.

For some landlords, meeting the new standards by the deadline of 1 July 2025 will require an expenditure to cover purchases and installation of necessary items, repair work, or both. Based on new changes, what costs can a landlord claim on tax?

Property investors can claim deductions for several expenses while their property is rented or available for rent. Knowing what you can claim will help not only to maximise your return but to avoid issues with the IRD.

The Government unveiled more information on plans that would bar landlords from deducting the interest costs of their mortgage from their tax bill.

This week the Government has provided more guidance on exemptions from new tax rules introduced in March 2021.

It’s been a big year for property investors, new government regulations, bans, new bills. No doubt a lot has happened! Now it’s time to plan for another busy year with plenty of changes ahead.

Building a granny flat in the back garden as an extra room that can be rented out seems like a no-brainer. But can construction costs associated with this build be claimed on tax?

The law requires all rental properties to be insulated. But is the cost of insulating a tenanted home tax deductible?

Even though it’s tempting to claim a full cost of furniture, appliances or other fittings purchased for your rental property in one go, you need to allocate the cost of these purchases over their useful lives. This method is called depreciation. This allowance accounts for wear and tear and general ageing of your purchases.

Everyone hates tax time (or even worse having to go to your lawyer or the tribunal). Why struggle through mountains of paperwork, emails or files across all your devices when myRent can generate a full summary of your tenancy in one click?
