FAQs
Q: What information do I need to provide you with?
A: Generally the information we require for the preparation of a rental property return is fairly straight-forward. We need to know the IRD numbers and contact details of the individuals who own the rental property. We need to know how much rent you have received and what expenses you have paid out for your rental property. If you have a mortgage we need to see the mortgage bank statements so we can calculate how much interest you can claim. See the PDF below to see a list of the types of expenses you can claim. If you have just purchased a rental property we need to see the Sale & Purchase Agreements and the Lawyers Statements.

A: You can claim the following as expenses;
- Interest on the Mortgage on the Rental Property
