House Hack Business Expenses

[Dan Graney]

Buying my first Duplex and I will be living in the upper unit. Bought it thru an FHA it would be considered my primary residence.

I just bought appliances for the lower unit. How do I handle this as a Business expense? As of right now I do not have an LLC.

Also I bought the appliances using a line of credit so I will be making monthly payments not a large cash expense.

Thank you in advance for you help.
