We also try to incentivize early completion with bonuses and punish late completion with reduced payments, but in reality this often becomes challenging because of things outside the contractor’s control.Hope this helps you some.

Multifamily and with strong retail tenants as a bonus. 

Positive cash flow would be a bonus.

Bonus Tip:  Find a distressed HUD Home (google Hud Home Store) and you can buy a house for just $100 down!

Not as big of an impact today, but I can see Trump reinstating the full bonus depreciation idea and making it retroactive. 

I think we may see a return of bonus depreciation, but I doubt that it'd come without a cap of $1-2m, and a repeal of Sec. 179.

A good real estate accountant can save you thousands of dollars by leveraging entity selection and formation, tax deductions, cost segregations, bonus depreciation and tax planning.I recommend finding an accountant who specializes in real estate taxation, business taxation, financial planning and tax planning.You may want to consider working with your accountant remotely to expand your options.I would also recommend looking for a accountant willing to work with you throughout the year.

I could not find the answer I'm looking for when searching.The following example could be used:- Amount invested $100k- Preferred return (5 years): 8% or $8k- Disposition (Sale) (Year 5): $200kThis simple example assumes no cash flow beyond the preferred return, no cost segregation/bonus segregation, and doesn't take depreciation into account.Would the first 5 years of cash flow (preferred return) not be taxed, and only the remaining amount on the disposition would be taxed (e.g. $200k - $100k + 5 * $8k = $140k)?  

Quote from @Melanie Baldridge: The tax benefits of bonus depreciation can lead to massive savings but losses won’t help one bit if you can’t use them.Before you buy a cost seg, you need to know the rules:Tax all starts with the types of income.1.

Any stats you can provide would be a bonus.
