Rental Income Tax Calculator
Rental Income Tax Calculator
Calculate the tax on your rental income after allowable expenses like bond interest, rates and repairs.
How it works: Your net rental income (rent less deductible expenses) is added to your other taxable income and taxed at your marginal rate. Deductible: bond interest (not capital repayments), rates, levies, insurance, agent fees and repairs. Improvements are not deductible.

Usually yes, but SARS can ring-fence repeated losses for higher earners.
Does rental income make me a provisional taxpayer?
It can, if your non-salary income is above the exemption. Use our provisional taxpayer check.
