CARES Act- Real Estate Depreciation Loss Carryback

Jaleh Afrooze
Posted

I read in a CNN article that depreciation expense can now be deducted from all other types of income with no limit (See below). Does anyone have a good attorney or CPA who can verify this? 

```Now here is what changed in the historic $2 trillion stimulus bill. Previously, if a married couple had depreciation deductions that exceeded their real estate business income, the couple could claim that "loss" to write off taxes on a maximum of $500,000 in income from other sources, like wages from a day job.
Under the change, our rich taxpayer couple -- and this applies only for individuals, not corporations -- can now deduct an unlimited amount of "excess losses" in real estate against income from other sources. So now real estate moguls with lucrative day jobs or bountiful capital gains from other investments can go back to living tax-free, the Kushner way, before limits were put in place as part of the 2017 tax reform bill.```
