Renting property to your own business

Varies

Can You Write Off Renting Property to Your Own Business?

Short answer: Rent your business pays you is deductible to the business and income to you, but self-rental income is nonpassive while losses stay passive.

Charge fair market rent and use a written lease.

Records to keep: Keep leases, receipts, a log of repairs vs improvements, mileage to the property, and closing statements.
