Hmmmmmm.....I don't know if that is exactly accurate.

Without researching my tax books I believe you are confusing and or mixing "passive" loss deductions with someone who is actively managing rental property for profit.

I'm not aware of anything that prevents one from claiming expenses against rental income. But I am aware there are rules for their rules regarding claiming "passive losses" where you ARE NOT actively engaged in the rental activity or own less then 5% of the property or something to that effect.

You may be correct....

I could be wrong...

but I don't think so.

There should be nothing preventing you from deducting the interest on the mortgage / taxes on the property / depreciation of the unit / and maintenance or repairs to the property against the income you received from the rental unit.

The deductions come into play before you even start to calculate your overall deductions on ur taxes, ie, if you brought in 10,000 this year in rental income only so much of that would be taxable after you deduct all of the above things you would then add the taxable income to your other taxable income. Technically each house is its own business.

If you formed an LLC you would have to use a "quick-claim deed" to transfer the property to your LLC, but if your bank or mortgage holder found out about it they can demand full payment for the remainder of the mortgage on the spot; on top of that, it's not considered a very legitimate practice.

The only thing I heard of for what you're saying is there is a CAP on how much you can deduct from your income for mortgage interest, etc, and the reason they capped that was because people who made a ton of money were going out and buying the biggest houses possible and deducting a substantial amount of income from being taxable, but I think it's a very high amount, somewhere over 250,000, but I'm not sure.

But this shouldn't apply to you because you wouldn't be claiming the rental property as your primary residence and deducting the interest against your ordinary income.

Yes you can do
but there is some document work which is to be done

Much ado about nothing, that's how the whole thing looks like. Even if you somehow managed to do this still if you are caught, then the bank won't be so happy about it. Besides, you can be sued.

i think you can do but there are some legal formalties, which is to be done.

If I were you, I would ask my accountant what is the best way to handle this situation.

In addition of property sites you can easily search different properties through this site Dubai Property – Sell Buy Rent Properties in UAE Dubai Real Estate & Homes this site have complete detail about dubai property and hotels.If you are interested investment in property you can visit that site.

I agree with Gary, treat it like income property. Report the income and take all the deductions including depreciation. When you sell transfer the proceeds into another income property and defer the taxes.

Well, if we look closely then there are many issues in making investments and it will be actually required to understand in which property we are making investments that will be worth in making gains effectively.

Shouldn't the property be in an LLC anyway if your renting it? What if you get sued?

The question is right and it is necessary for us knowing the best one can do to get over such problem and to even get it resolve.

Yes, You can run LCC as a business.
