CAPEX on Residential property is NOT an allowable tax exp. However if the owner leaves in the house purchased or improved by a bank loan, 150k max is allowable as interest exp. Here is the twist. CAPEX Rental Property. If CAPEX is used to renovate a rental property in order to maintain the level of rent that expenditure is allowable as an expense. |
