Hiring Family Members

Apr. 15, 2009

Last Minute Tax Tip - Hire Family Members to Manage Your Properties

Property management fees are fully deductible, so consider hiring someone that you don't mind paying, like a family member.

Obviously, the expense of your own labor cannot be written off, but that doesn't mean your spouse or children have to work for free.

By hiring family members, it won't bother you to pay management fees because the expense is fully deductible, and the money stays within your family :)

Keep in mind you'll have to withhold Social Security and Medicare taxes for the income you pay.

AND of course, hiring a professional is always a good idea. Your teenager might not be the greatest candidate to collect rent :)

Everyone's tax situation is different, and this information should not substitute professional advice. Taxpayers should always consult with their tax advisors to consider specific factors that might affect their situation.
