Rental Property Tax Return Services

If you own an investment property, you’ll need to declare the income and expenses through your annual tax return — and you want to make sure it’s done right. From mortgage interest to depreciation schedules, rental property tax returns come with a long list of deductible items and compliance rules. At Trident Accounting, we make sure every eligible deduction is claimed and your return is 100% ATO-compliant.

We help property investors across Australia — including local landlords here in Miranda, Cronulla, and the Sutherland Shire, NSW — stay on top of their tax obligations while maximising their tax outcomes.

What’s Included in Your Rental Property Tax Return

  • Inclusion of all rental income from tenants
  • Deduction of property management fees and commissions
  • Apportionment of mortgage interest and loan fees
  • Claiming council rates, water, strata and utilities
  • Depreciation reports for fixtures, fittings, and buildings
  • Maintenance vs capital works distinctions
  • Claiming travel and inspection expenses (if eligible)
  • Negative gearing loss calculations

Whether your property is positively or negatively geared, we’ll prepare and lodge your return so you get the right result — no missed deductions, no ATO issues.

Common Mistakes We Help You Avoid

  • Confusing capital improvements with repairs
  • Claiming full interest on mixed-use loans
  • Forgetting depreciation or not having a schedule
  • Double-claiming travel or agent expenses
  • Omitting rental income from Airbnb or short stays

These errors can lead to ATO reviews, amendments, or lost refunds. We ensure everything is accurate and legally defensible — even if you have multiple properties or interstate investments.
