Quote from @Melanie Baldridge: In 2025 the bonus depreciation rate is 40%.This means that if you bought a property for $1M in 2025, did a cost seg study and found $300K in eligible assets that you could depreciate, you could take 40% of that $300K as bonus depreciation to offset your income in the first year.40% of $300K = $120K.You then apply that $120K to the owner’s personal tax rate to find the final amount that they can defer in year 1.If your tax rate is 37%, you can defer $66.6K.This is a big deal even at the 40% bonus depreciation rate this year.It’s a massive benefit 

I was looking into unsecured personal loans but they only cover about 50-100k for 1 year duration.  

However, transferring your current home into an LLC may affect financing, as most traditional lenders require it to remain in your personal name for a home equity loan.

For example of above, there was a person I know, they bought a house for a rental, the square footage was enough to make a 3rd bed out of a dining room, that would increase the month rent by $400.00 a month if they did that..

It kinda creates a much smaller threshold for the tenant to save money if they were to keep an eye on their usage since I'm paying a large chunk of it, while also being able to keep any eye on how much they spend so it gives them that personal incentive to watch their usages.

Sometimes you will have that next person/family lined up and ready to go, but sometimes it takes much longer and you need do renovations or at least some repairs.

It doesn't matter if the shareholder and President are the same person, the way you behave should be the same. 

-Explore builder-financing programs, private lenders, or hard money lenders who may focus more on the deal itself rather than personal experience.If you can demonstrate successful project management and a solid business plan, funding will become easier over time.

If the loan officer asks you about your debts, you can ask clarifying questions such as are you asking for personal debts or business debts?

Personally, I’ve been exploring opportunities where growth patterns and infrastructure expansion hint at future value increases.
