so expensing some random percentage of the COSTS of the house, based on the sq footage of that office, will amount to nil. im jus sayin, it aint worth it, ive done the math.
now, if you run a warehouse out of your house, and thats your business, and its like 5000 sq ft SURE, expense the hell out of that... but a 10x12 or whatever room it is, as a percentage of the costs, i BET, will not add up to any sort of negligible change in your tax bracket.
