... there were numerous non stop commercials from the various RE agents broadcasted on the radio (especially the Chinese ones) whenever there is a condo pre-con release.

During interim occupancy, you don't own the unit yet. You pay the builder a monthly fee and receive rental income from the tenant. Do you just file taxes as if you own it? i.e. rental revenue - rental expense = net rental income? Appreciate opinions from people who have done this before.Thanks,
