That means:Depreciation recapture under IRC §1245 is triggered at the time of sale.You’ll pay ordinary income tax (not capital gains) on the depreciation taken on these components, including bonus depreciation.Even if the replacement property has similar assets, the IRS treats them as newly acquired, so the prior depreciation is recaptured and taxed.Tax mitigation strategies:New cost segregation on the replacement property to front-load fresh depreciation that can offset income (especially useful if you qualify for REPS or STR material participation).Strategically use suspended passive losses or time the sale during a lower-income year to reduce your effective tax rate on the recapture.Consider installment sale or partial exchange structure, if applicable, to spread gain.Let us know if you'd like our downloadable 1031 exchange, we can send that over to help you build out your roadmap.This post does not create a CPA-Client relationship.
