Your background equips you to handle the admin work, but as you expand, consider outsourcing to focus on strategic growth.

Fun not obvious one: Bonus depreciation from other equipment assets (ATMS, cars, etc) 

.- 100% bonus depreciation allows you to fully expense purchased assets (think of equipment or any that has a depreciable life under 15 years) in the year acquired. - The EBITDA add-back computation for the interest expense limitation allows you to be fully able to expense your interest expense. 

Do you purchase and maintain your own equipment and collect all revenues?

To prepare for maximizing bonus depreciation or conducting a cost segregation study, you can begin gathering detailed records of the property's assets and improvements, coordinate with a cost segregation specialist early, and consider any renovations or purchases of eligible equipment to align with tax strategies that take full advantage of the current bonus depreciation rates before they phase out.

You are better equipped the more you know.Developing a network is your best weapon.
