Capital Gains - Simplified
Hey BP,
I'm having a hard time visualizing the taxable capital gains on the backside of owning a property.
Here's an example to help simplify my question:
What gets taxed when you sell a property?
Lets assume the property was bought for 100K and financed at @ 80%. You've enjoyed the depreciation tax benefits for 10 years, but now you're ready to sell it.
You sell the property for 150K and the loan payoff is 50K, leaving a simple 100K difference.
What is the total taxable amount from the sale, assuming standard depreciation was used?
Thank you for your time.
