Tax implications of buying a rental in December vs. January?

[Phillip Austin]

Good morning,

We are looking to see what are the tax incentives of buying a house outright in January 2021 or December 2020. We are new to the RE game and are looking for any advice that could be offered. If you have any advice about the current scenario it would be greatly appreciated. We are also searching for anyone who might work with us remotely on tax advice and filing, going forward.

Thank you,
