    Got Any Questions?

    The right structure depends on your investment goals, income level, and long-term plans. Corporations offer liability protection and tax deferral on rental income while personal ownership provides easier access to principal residence exemptions and lower capital gains inclusion rates.

    Canadian real estate investors must understand capital gains rules, rental income reporting requirements, HST obligations on new and substantially renovated properties, and non-resident withholding taxes. The principal residence exemption, capital cost allowance deductions, and property flipping rules also impact your tax position.

    Capital gains determine how much tax you owe on property sale profits. Only 50% of capital gains are included in taxable income for most individuals, making it more favorable than business income treatment. Proper documentation of your adjusted cost base and selling expenses directly reduces your taxable gain and final tax bill.

    Yes. You can convert your home to a rental property, but this triggers a deemed disposition at fair market value unless you file a Section 45(2) election. This election defers the change in use and preserves your principal residence exemption for up to four additional years.

    Multiple property owners claim capital cost allowance deductions, deduct all eligible expenses including mortgage interest, and structure ownership to optimize income allocation. Timing property sales across different tax years and utilizing losses from one property against gains from another also reduce overall tax liability. We develop multi-property tax strategies that maximize your after-tax returns.

    Property tax Toronto is calculated by multiplying your property’s assessed value by the municipal tax rate. The Municipal Property Assessment Corporation determines assessed values while the City of Toronto sets annual tax rates. Your property class and location within the city also affect your final tax amount.
