If you had made the option incorrectly you could have accidentally put the number of years over a small time in which it could have been eleigible for bonus depreciation; however, that would be incorrect.

A few more rounds of quantitative easing should do the trick.

Bonus depreciation is your friend.

For owning and home and comfort with a little bonus cash, sure.

Hello, I have been fixing up a 3 bed 1.25 house with a bonus room for the past few months.

Would 50% bonus depreciation rule (for improvements) work here?

Look for deals with financing that still give you positive cash flow.Would you rather:a) buy a $500,000 property with cash and have cash flow of $1,000 per month (just a random round number - not an indication of a goal), and not have an interest deduction for your taxes; or, b) use your $500,000 as leverage to buy multiple properties (let's say 7 as an example) that are financed, but still get you positive cash flow of $500 per month (again, just a random round number), and you get a tax write-off for your interest payments?

The bonus depreciation provision generally enables businesses to deduct half the cost of qualifying property in the year it is placed in service.

Hi there,Using round numbers for a newer single family house that you will use as a rental:Down Payment: 20%-25%Closing: ~5%Safety Net: ~$15,000 (I let this fall to around $10K after it is rented and things are a little stabilized)I'm sure someone more smart than me may tweak these, but that's what I work from.

Marcin G, The preference is to keep track of it per property; however, sometimes it is easier to split it between all of the properties if you always drove it in rounds.
