Catch Up Depreciation

Posted

I’ve owned a rental for roughly 10 years but have never depreciated the property. I recently learned that I’ll have to "recapture" all allowable depreciation (taken or not) when I eventually sell the property, so this year I plan to do catch-up depreciation using Form 3115. Does anyone have any advice/recommendations for me? I assume I can catchup on all 10 years at once but I want to make sure there aren’t any other major considerations. Thanks for the help.

@Matt Darak

You're on the right track. The form is difficult though. So my advice is to not DIY it.
