Eric Williams Oversimplified Cost Seg Example II
16 October 2023 | 0 replies
This time I wanted to add a property to show that the benefits of cost segs on residential rentals may improve as the income producing properties increases.Not much has changed except for gross rental of 40k, designed to represent net income, has been added (you could also pretend to divide 40 across multiple properties)However, the bonus depreciation not used on the "Property A" gets transferred over to "Property B" (in effect).Although this doesn't offset W-2 income, don't ignore the fact rental income is taxed at ordinary rates, so the benefit is still there.I think the takeaway may be consider holding off on the bonus until you have more properties if there are insufficient, other passive activities to absorb the amounts.

Losses from rental property are considered passive losses and can generally offset passive income only (that is, income from other rental properties or another small business in which you do not materially participate, not including investments).If these passive losses exceed your passive income, they are suspended and carried forward indefinitely until future years, when you either have passive income or sell a property at a gain.Generally, the only time passive losses will offset your ordinary income from a W-2 job or another trade or business from passive activity rule which says you can deduct up to $25,000 in passive losses against your ordinary income (W-2 wages) if your modified adjusted gross income (MAGI) is $100,000 or less.
