@Richard FlemingTaxable income is the amount of rental income left over after you have paid all your deductible expenses and take depreciation.In your debt service scenario, a portion of the loan payment is deductible interest, a portion is non-deductible principal, and perhaps a portion is a non-deductible contribution to an escrow account.
