paying recapture is the most NON talked about event on BP or in real estate.. and why when folks talk about buying for only cash flow and appreciation IE speculation or gambling those folks totally miss the point and do not have a full picture of the Lifecyle of a real estate investment.. if you have NO appreciation your recapture tax is going to eat into your IRR in a negative manner.and for a lot of folks to 1031 one little house with 20k coming out of it is hard to do.. since the house never went up.. the other thing is people that say they are buy and hold forever.. this rarely happens.. life happens life changes.. and so 7 to 10 years down the track MOST folks unless they have decided to make it their lifes work IE be a full time professional landlord.. they sell .and then that pesky recapture they never knew about or thought about bites them .. :)

Paolo F. Information on depreciation
24 September 2018 | 17 replies
@Paolo F.If you acquire another investment property in the future - you should claim depreciation when the units are placed in service(once the units are in livable condition).Regarding the property you purchase in 2017 - you may need to start claiming depreciation on your 2018 return by doing a "change in accounting" which allows you to include the missed depreciation from 2017 onto your 2018 return.I likely would not do this on your own.
