Did you know that you can benefit from a tax advantage when you buy an original painting?

Did you know what you can do when you buy an original painting?

Indeed, the acquisition of a work of art such as a painting can give right to a depreciation expense.

The formula is simple, only 3 conditions are required:

1. The property acquired must be capital property acquired after November 12, 1981;

2. the acquisition must be made for the purpose of earning income. Thus the work of art must be acquired in a commercial context, for example in order to be displayed in a business location in the sight of customers: offices, conference rooms, waiting areas, etc .;

3. The creator of the work must be Canadian. This meant that he had to be a citizen or permanent resident of Canada at the time the work was created.

 “The acquisition of a work of art = AN INVESTMENT,  so why not make a stone 3 shots? “

1. Enhance your work environment, decorate your walls according to your tastes, with original works;

2. You invest in works of art created by local artists, and your acquisitions will increase in market value over the years;

3. You benefit from tax advantages because the acquisition of tables gives right to amortization expenses.

The Québec tax incentive is a deduction of 33.33% of the acquisition cost of the work, while the federal tax credit  is 20%.
