I did pest control for my house a day before the property was made available for rent. Is this expense deductible in that year? The house was recently bought soley for rental investment purpose.

Hi @hjosh,


When we look at rental deductions. You can claim an immediate deduction for expenses in the income year you incur them. In the list of expenses that you can claim an immediate deduction for. Pest control is on that list.
