If you don’t know your TFN, look at a recent ATO Notice of Assessment or other correspondence, it generally has your TFN in the top right hand corner.

If you rent out a residential property on a regular or continuous basis you are carrying on an enterprise for ABN purposes and are entitled to an ABN.
An activity is:

'continuous' if there is no significant cessation or interruption to the activity
'regular' if it is repeated at reasonably close intervals. The intervals do not need to be fixed.

Do you need an ABN when renting out residential property?

If you let out residential premises where the whole of the premises is to be used predominantly for residential accommodation purposes, you do not need an ABN for pay as you go withholding purposes.

I am renting out residential property on a regular or continuous basis.

An activity is:

'continuous' if there is no significant cessation or interruption to it
'regular' if it repeated at reasonably close intervals. The intervals do not need to be fixed.

The activities are on a regular or continuous basis.

A 'reasonable expectation' is more than a possibility, risk or chance of the event occurring. A reasonable expectation of profit or gain is determined by whether, looking at all the circumstances, a reasonable person would conclude that there is a reasonable expectation of profit or gain. For the purposes of determining whether, objectively, there is a reasonable expectation of profit or gain, one factor to consider is that particular kinds of enterprises may take longer to become profitable and may make an overall loss initially.

'Profit or gain' refers to concepts commonly used in the commercial world and can encompass a 'profit or gain' of an income or capital nature.

I expect to make a profit or gain from my activity.
