Bonus depreciation recapture is based on the year that is placed into services.As of right now, the bonus depreciation for 2024 is 60%.It is not likely that they will change the bonus depreciation retroactively to 2024.If they change the bonus depreciation for properties purchased in 2025, it will have no impact on a property you placed into service in 2024.

@Preet Oberoi Purchasing a short-term rental (STR) or tiny home to offset W-2 income with depreciation can be effective if structured correctly.

Recommend you first figure out the property Class you want to invest in, THEN figure out the corresponding location to invest in.Property Class will typically dictate the Class of tenant you get, which greatly IMPACTS rental income stability and property maintenance/damage by tenants.If you apply Class A assumptions to a Class B or C purchase, your expectations won’t be met and it may be a financial disaster.If you buy/renovate a property in Class D area to Class A standards, what quality of tenant will you get?

I recently purchased my first duplex in Peoria, AZ in September and I am using it as a house hack where I rent out one side and live in the other.

Thank you for the information.

@Mitch Davidson I purchased a property recently and closing in May.
