Founder of RentBase. Canadian landlord in Ontario.

I'm Adam. I own rental properties in Ontario, and I built RentBase because I was tired of wrestling my expenses into a spreadsheet every April.

The rental software market is dominated by American tools. They talk about Schedule E and miles and dollars when what Canadian landlords actually need is the T776, kilometres, CAD, and a proper Capital Cost Allowance schedule. I built the software I couldn't buy.

On the blog I write practical guides for Canadian landlords on tax, deductions, and day-to-day property management. Everything here is written from the perspective of someone who actually files a T776 every year.

What I focus on

  • The CRA T776 Statement of Real Estate Rentals, section by section
  • Capital Cost Allowance (CCA) classes, half-year rule, UCC carry-forward
  • Mileage and vehicle expense tracking at CRA rates
  • Deductible vs capital expenses, and how the CRA distinguishes the two
  • Provincial rules for Canadian landlords (Ontario RTA, BC, Alberta, Quebec)
  • Practical record-keeping to survive a CRA audit

Have a topic you want me to write about? Drop me a line.
