Taxation of Landlords and Tenants 2025

Description

Get practical insights into common tax issues for landlords and tenants, including deductibility, fit-outs, and lease payments - illustrated with real-world case studies.

This highly practical webinar examines:

• Tax issues that are important to landlords, including the deductibility of expenses such as legal fees, repairs and maintenance, and expenses to meet the “healthy homes” standards; and

Case studies will illustrate the application of these issues.
