If you have
purchased an investment property this year, you will need to advise your
accountant of the expenses associated with the purchase.
It is a good idea to provide your accountant
with a copy of the contract of sale, so that they can make sure that no
deductions have been overlooked.

with your investment property and will need to be included in your summary of expenses:
