Which document is associated with certifying property that collects rents and profits?

• A. Certificate of Property
• B. Deed
• C. Mortgage
• D. Bill of Sale

Answer: (A)

In tax collection, identifying property that generates rents and profits requires a document that specifically certifies the property's status as income-producing for regulatory or tax purposes. That is a Certificate of Property. It signals to authorities that this asset is involved in rental or profit-generating activity and thus subject to related tax rules or liens.

A deed documents the transfer of ownership, a mortgage is a loan secured by the property, and a bill of sale records the transfer of personal property. Each serves a different function, whereas the Certificate of Property is the one that ties the asset to its rents and profits status for taxation.
