Types of Rental Income
As an investor, correctly categorizing your rental income is critical for both tax and financial planning. In general terms, rental income can be classified into two categories:
- Active income: This stems from hands-on activities like short-term rentals or managing properties. Examples include daily rentals or properties where you’re significantly involved in the operations.
- Passive income: This is generated from long-term leases where you aren’t actively involved in the day-to-day operations.
