Before Your First Tenant Moves In…

First-time landlords often focus on finding a tenant and collecting the first month’s rent.

But there are several things worth thinking about before move-in: insurance, recordkeeping, banking, lease agreements, cash reserves, property management, and tax reporting.

We cover these and other practical considerations in our First-Time Landlord Guide.

Should You Hire a Property Manager?

For many rental property owners, hiring a property manager isn't just a financial decision. It's also a decision about time.

Tenant communication, rent collection, maintenance coordination, vendors, leases, recordkeeping, and year-end reporting can all become part of managing a rental.

So when does hiring a property manager make sense?
We break down some of the considerations in our Rental Property Knowledge Center.

Repair or Improvement for a Rental Property? The Difference Matters at Tax Time. 🔧🏠

Not every expense for a rental property is treated the same way for tax purposes.

Generally, a repair keeps the property in ordinary working condition, while an improvement may add value, extend the property's useful life, or adapt it to a new use.

Why does the distinction matter? Depending on the facts, an expense may be deductible currently or may need to be capitalized and recovered over time through depreciation.

That’s also why good records matter. Keep invoices, receipts, and descriptions of the work performed so you have the information needed when it’s time to prepare your tax return.

📖 Estate Planning FAQ: What is a Grantor Trust?

A grantor trust is a trust where the person who created it (the grantor) is generally responsible for reporting the trust's income on their personal tax return.

While that sounds simple, every trust is unique, and the tax rules can vary depending on how the trust is structured.

If you're serving as a trustee, managing a family trust, or have questions about trust tax filings, we're here to help make the process clear and organized.
