As a landlord, you can reduce your taxable income by claiming expenses like insurance, rates, repairs, and property management fees. Capital expenses that improve the property's value are not deductible.
A key change is the restoration of interest deductibility. The government is phasing this back in, with an 80% deduction planned for the 2024/25 tax year, rising to 100% from 2025/26.
Due to the complexity of these rules, seeking advice from a qualified accountant is highly recommended.
