A 1031 Exchange is also known as the Tax- Deferred Exchange, which allows the different shareholders as well as different depositors to reinvest the profits that these people had acquired as well as earned, most particularly when it comes from the different financial transactions of the property that the investor had advanced without acquiring different taxes from the government.

@Catherine Javier If you find the property is more of a liability to you and ultimately decide to sell, the 1031 exchange would probably be the best way to take advantage of using the tax and find something with a greater growth potential.

Bonus depreciation is just a special part of the US tax code.It allows you to take accelerated depreciation on portions of your property depending on when an asset is put into service.At the time of this writing, you can write off a huge portion (60% in 2024) of many qualified components that have a useful lifespan of 15 years or less.That means a certain percentage of things like landscaping, sidewalks, latches, appliances, fences, certain flooring, etc is depreciable in year 1.The bonus depreciation rate percentage changes yearly depending on the administration and the tax code.For years 2015 through 2017 first-year depreciation for all the items on a 15-year schedule or less was set to 50%.It was scheduled to go down to 40% in 2018 and 30% in 2019 and then 0% in 2020.But then Trump got elected, and he enacted the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act.That moved the bonus depreciation percentage to 100% from 2017 to 2022.In 2023 it went down to 80% and it’s currently at 60%.Depending on who gets elected again, 100% may be back on the table.Only time will tell.We know that the US government wants to incentivize more development and ownership of RE.They want Americans to continue to build and maintain our physical world.That’s why real estate is one of the most tax-advantaged assets in the US.Depreciation and bonus depreciation for RE are very positive and will likely continue in the years ahead.

I use Stessa for accounting, I love it, it links right to my bank account/credit card accounts and I can assign purchases to different properties and units of the property for multi-unit properties and at the end of the year I have a simple report to give my tax professional 

If you have a regarded tax entity, e.g. partnership, S Corp, C Corp, you need complete financials -- P&L and balance sheet to adequately prepare the tax returns and answer tax related questions. 

If you need financial help, ask under the "Finance, Tax, and Legal" forum.

Two of the units have their own W/D. 4 others share a separate W/D so it isn't taxed very much.

Imagine a $185K income earner ($100K after tax) having a $600K mortgage.
