Accounting for a rental property
Accounting for a rental property can be a challenge at times but should be taken seriously to maximize the advantages that come along with it. Yes, collecting rent is an obvious task of property management but is the accounting of the collection of rent being done properly?
Keeping track of the rental income, maintenance labor, materials, supplies, invoices and receipts can make the difference in the tax you pay at the end of the year. Record of these items should have supporting documents along with it, should the IRS decide to audit your tax return.
