Commercial property and depreciation

[Josh Richards]

Can anyone provide some insight on commercial property and depreciation? It is my understanding that commercial property (i.e. A warehouse) is depreciated over 39 years. This longer life would negate some of the tax benefits that are afforded to owners of residential rental properties (due to the shorter depreciable life on those types of properties), and would most likely cause your rental income to be taxable more often then not, right? Any help/thoughts would be appreciated.
