Wanted to know if landscaping is a tax deductable expense in general and if it differs when one unit is owner occupied.

A HELOC on your duplex or home offers flexible, low-interest financing ideal for BRRRR, with potential tax-deductible interest if used for property expenses.

Whichever loan that you decide to use, the interest will be tax deductible due to interest tracing rules.

Note that legal and transfer costs are not deductible but can be added to your cost basis.

The Big plus is the tax deductions they will be able to take as well!!! 

Key points include:Security Deposits: In Indiana, there’s no legal cap on security deposits, but you must return the deposit (minus any valid deductions) within 45 days of the tenant vacating the property.Evictions: Follow the formal process carefully.

As explained above, income from the financed portion of the property in an IRA would be taxed as well, but you can deduct related expenses, including depreciation, to minimize this tax liability; that is why I recommend a discussion with a tax expert to understand what your numbers would look like.Hope this helps!  

Hard money loans offer fast approval and don't risk personal assets but come with high-interest rates and fees, which can be tax-deductible as carrying costs.

The interest would be tax deductible due to interest tracing rules. 

My main account has all the rents deposited and all expenses deducted such as mortgages, some utilities and an electronic payment app connected to the account to pay contractors.
