ParticipantYou CAN deduct interest for tax purposes on investment property.
As I stated above the mortgage interest is deducted from the gross rent received. (As are the other expenses mentioned). surveyor accounted for these in his calculation.
There is no additional “tax savings” for which to account by taking a mortgage interest deduction. He already accounted for that by subtracting it as an expense from gross rents.

ParticipantI was referring to data he posted in a different thread. He posted his numbers for Return on Equity (ROE).
Return on Equity = (the way he calculated it) Cash Flow + Appreciation + Loan Reduction + Tax Savings divided by down payment.
*************
What I originally said (and you first commented on) is he didn’t factor in the interest deduction when figuring his tax savings. He confirmed that by saying he purposely overcompensated by adding in too much depreciation (he didn’t subtract the land from the basis).Make sense now? I got a feeling we are saying the same thing.

No, FSD is right, I thought you were referring to another interest deduction, not mortgage interest deduction. The mortgage interest deduction is taken away from the cash flow.
