Your tax advantages
at a glance
20% VAT applies as input tax
The gross purchase price of a condominium is made up of the net price of the apartment and the 20% VAT. The buyer receives the 20% VAT in full as input tax from the local tax office no later than after the Roomeo has been completed.
Loan interest
If the investment apartment is financed in whole (or in part) by a loan, the loan interest incurred may be deducted in full from the rent for tax purposes over the entire term.
Wear and tear
Acquisition and production costs can be deducted from tax when renting and leasing. The building or apartment is subject to wear and tear (depreciation) The useful life of an apartment for tax purposes is 66.66 years. The taxable "wear and tear" of the value of the apartment is therefore around 1.5% per year. This wear and tear is deducted annually from the rental income for tax purposes. The kitchen, including all kitchen appliances, is considered special equipment and can be deducted from the rental income for tax purposes at a rate of 10% per year.
Accelerated depreciation
Accelerated depreciation can be claimed for buildings acquired or constructed from July 1, 2020. A maximum of three times (4.5%) the normal depreciation rate can be claimed in the year in which depreciation is first taken into account, and a maximum of twice (3%) the normal depreciation rate in the following year.
Tax advice
The costs for tax advice are considered "income-related expenses" and are also deducted from the rental income for tax purposes.
