How is depreciation handled at a refinancing?
Hello! I want to pose a hypothetical example. If I buy a rental property for 200K where land is valued at 50K and building at 150K. then i can depreciate the building at about 3.6% annually or $5455 in dollars. Lets say the building increases in value to 300K and I do a refi. Lets say the building is now appraised at 240K, land at 60K. Does the depreciation start fresh on the 240K or now $8727 annually? Or does it stay at $5455 until the building is sold? (I am new and have not done any deals).
