Melanie Baldridge Did you know this about Gas Stations?
14 January 2025 | 2 replies
The tax advantages of buying/holding gas stations are pretty great.Many of the components of gas stations including pumps, tanks, external parking areas, and other equipment are classified as either 5 or 15 year property so you can bonus depreciate a lot of it (minus the land value) and get significant deductions in year 1.With the 2025 bonus depreciation rate at 40%, a $1 million gas station acquisition could still lead to $100K+ in year 1 deductions depending on the specifics of your deal.

Bob Dole Cost Segregation -- What is the true benefit of the accelerated depreciation?
9 January 2025 | 32 replies
Quote from @Bob Dole: All,Apologies for the newb question, but I just heard about cost segregation and have been reading up about it online.My understanding is this (and please correct me where I'm wrong):Pros: -accelerate depreciation, front load (vs. just a straight line over 39 years) -save money on taxes because of the depreciationCons: -if I sell the property, the recapture will be larger -not recommended if you flip propertiesSo hypothetical situation:-Majority of our income is W2 based, let's say it's $500k-Net income from commercial rental is $100k-Income from dividends and interests is $100k-Both of us are full time W2, so non-prof real estate (but this can change  -- please see below)So we're hypothetically grossing $700k a year.

You could also get a line of credit for about $150k (you should be able to borrow 75% of the value.)The reason I suggest this is…1) you save $40-$60k in selling costs. 2) you have a lower blended interest rate (2/3rds at 3.25% and 1/3rd at 7 or 8% instead of the whole $500k at 7 or 8%) saving you another $1k/mo in interest. 3) you only pay interest on that $150k when you actually use it, not from day 1  Unless you hate this property, or want to buy something you can’t afford without selling, that would be my plan.
