For 2024, the annual gift tax exclusion is $18,000 per recipient (rising to $19,000 in 2025), and amounts above this require filing a gift tax return (Form 709).

Nate @Nate Marroquin   You can use the income from your tax returns on the current rental adding back your paper loss (depreciation) and add back the mortgage interest, property taxes, home owners insurance deductions on your tax returns. 

Your rate of return was 13% versus the 9% return not utilizing leverage.  

Rental income will still be taxed as Oregon source income, and you will also report it on your California individual tax return as part of your worldwide income.

If you’re able to dive deep or work with someone who has boots-on-the-ground experience, the returns can be very rewarding.Good luck with your journey, and feel free to reach out if you’d like more insights or resources on Detroit!

Quote from @Stuart Udis: @Danielle B What data are you relying on that suggests Section 8 leased properties provide for better returns than other investment strategies?

WANTED: CALIFORNIA TAX RETURN PRONeed real estate tax pro in California to go over proposed draft.Includes sale of rental property. 

If you want some very broad strokes that are asset class specific, but not location specific.Highest risk and return to lowest risk and return, offices is at the top.

There are two types of return from a rental propertyCash Flow & Appreciation.I normally also aim for a minimum of 8% return between Cash-Flow and Appreciation.Appreication, nationally, is around 2% to 3% annually.Therefore, your goal is to get the cash-flow to be about 5% to 6%.The issue is interest rates being very high, you would therefore, need to buy at a pricepoint where the numbers still make sense.You can always put down more of a downpayment to cash flow, but that will impact your cash on cash return calculations.Best of luck!
