Real estate attracts millionaires and other sophisticated investors, not only because of the returns. Investing in real estate comes with tax advantages compared to other investment vehicles. With the help of your CPA, you can make the most of these tax breaks.

Deduct Qualified Business Expenses

You have to report the income you earned from your investment property in your tax return, but you can also claim deductions like mortgage interest, operating and repair expenses, and property tax. Even if you are a limited partner or an equity investor, you can claim a deduction proportionate to your ownership.

 

 

 

Use Accelerated Depreciation to Offset Gains

Real estate investors can claim depreciation against the investment property and its contents as a deduction on their tax return over 27.5 years. With the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017, investors were allowed to claim 100% depreciation on the first year of property ownership for qualified investments. With the help of your CPA or financial advisor, you can time the sale of other assets like stocks in the same year you claim the full depreciation, to either reduce or avoid paying taxes.

 

 

Lower Tax Rate for Long-Term Capital Gains

Investment property will generate the highest profits when you hold it as a long-term investment. When the time is ripe for cashing out on your investment, you should get your initial investment back tax-free. Any profit from the investment would still be taxable for long-term capital gains, but taxes applicable to these gains are lower compared to the ordinary income tax bracket.

 

 

 

Learn More from the Investor Club

You can invest in many real estate ventures, but you may not be aware of all your options. Investors who are experienced in the market can share their expertise and strategies that may also work for you. Of course, it’s always best to consult your tax advisor to make sure you’re making the best choices for your situation.
