What expenses are deductible in my home office?

Expenses directly allocated to the home office such as painting the office or buying furniture for the office are 100% deductable. Other expenses indirectly incurred are deductable at a business expense allocation percentage. These would include Real estate taxes, mortgage interest, depreciation, utilities, rent, insurance, snow removal and security.
