Real Estate Investors: What Tax Topics Do You Actually Want Explained?

Real Estate Investors: What Tax Topics Do You Actually Want Explained?

I'm planning a series of webinars focused exclusively on tax and accounting for real estate investors, and I'd rather answer the questions you're actually asking than guess.

What tax or accounting topics would you like to learn more about?

Some ideas:

  • Cost segregation: when does it actually make sense?
  • Real Estate Professional Status (REPS)
  • The Short-Term Rental "Loophole"
  • Bonus depreciation
  • 1031 exchanges
  • Entity structure (LLC, S Corp, Partnership, etc.)
  • Bookkeeping best practices for rental portfolios
  • Capital improvements vs. repairs
  • Passive activity loss rules
  • Depreciation and depreciation recapture
  • Estimated tax payments
  • Recordkeeping and audit documentation
  • State tax issues for investors with properties in multiple states
  • Selling investment properties and minimizing taxes
  • Common tax mistakes that cost investors money

Or is there another topic you've always wanted a straightforward answer to?

Drop your questions below. If enough people are interested in the same topic, I'll create a detailed post or video breaking it down in plain English, with practical examples, not tax jargon.

    Looks like an important topic but this forum is actually not about tax issues. It's already about two mostly unrelated topics (tax liens and mortgage notes) but the powers that be did not agree to break it into two forums unfortunately.
