Taxation of sale of rental properties and personal residences
February 2nd, 2010Taxation of sale of rental properties and personal residences
In early 2009 a rental property investor was referred to Owens Tax Advisors Ltd, having bought and sold a number of residential rental properties and then been audited by IRD. At one point IRD proposed that if the sale of rental properties amounted to a business then the sale of one or two private homes were also potentially subject to GST and income tax.
