Introduction to Rental Invoice
When a landlord or property management receives payment for a rental property, they will deliver or mail a rent invoice to the tenant (whether they are renting a single, multi-family, or commercial property). To ensure accurate payment records, the property manager or landlord should keep copies of all relevant paperwork.
GST stands for Goods & Service Tax. It is crucial to remember that the GST is only charged on the rental of commercial property; it is not charged on the rental of residential property.
