commercial vs residential tax differences

[Billy Abildgaard]

Hello all, 

I'm trying to figure out the differences between commercial investing (business property) and residential as far as tax implications, write offs, etc.  To be clear, when I say commercial I mean leasing to a business, not commercial because of the number of units.  I understand residential tax write offs, schedule E, depreciation, etc.  For example, not sure if depreciation is different if one was to own a commercial property that a business leased, and if a schedule E would still be used.  Trying to determine what has better tax advantages while comparing commercial vs residential for a next investment. 

Appreciate any insight or clarification the community can provide.
