Power of Bonus Dep.

Someone I know bought a ranch to use as a short term rental property in 2021 for $1.7 million.Engineers did a virtual site visit, they were able to assign a value of $347,000 to either 5-7-15 year assets that were eligible for depreciation.In 2021, the bonus depreciation amount that you could take was 100%.This means that the owner could immediately deduct the full amount of eligible property in the year it was placed in service, rather than depreciating it over time.With that in mind, he took the full $347K deduction in his FIRST YEAR of ownership to offset taxable income from rentals.This was roughly ~20% of his purchase price.It was a big win for him.In 2024, the bonus depreciation rate is 60% so the calculation would be different.That said, you can still save and defer a ton.

Both laws use the same terms, but define them in completely different ways.I find it best to reference HUD's guidance memos on the subject.https://www.hud.gov/sites/dfiles/PA/documents/AsstAnimalsGui...https://www.hud.gov/sites/dfiles/PA/documents/HUDAsstAnimalN...https://www.hud.gov/sites/dfiles/FHEO/documents/19ServiceAni...
