Expenses:
- Real estate agents management fee (rental statement)
- Interest on loan (Bank statements) & bank charges
- Depreciation schedule
- Body corporate fees and charges
- Insurance

- Traveling cost (car logbook or diary note if under 5000 KMs)
- Any legal costs of maintaining the property
- Any accounting costs of maintaining the property
- Any other rental property expenses
Please bring along any investment property related expense that you think could be a deduction and we will advise you whether that is claimable or not. You do not need to bring along receipts for expenses, as long as you have them for your reference and you can tell us how much the expense is. Please also bring in your last year’s return if you have it available.
