Hi! I have a short term rental property. It's a 5th wheel located at a campground. It does not get moved. Will the RV be depreciated at 5 years or 27.5 years? I am unable to find anything giving me a for sure answer. ...

I will not comment as to the tax laws and underlying rules - that is a discussion you can have with your tax advisor who presumably you are paying to help you.What I will do is provide practical and business guidance on tracking time.Firstly, there are apps available that can assist with time tracking where you can specifically detail your time, who you met with, etc.

And she’s the one that released the latest tax rates and year to year comparisons in September of 2024.

There are less taxes in Alberta too.

I am looking to purchase real estate for both investment purpose as well as to offset as much tax liability as possible. 

This year will be the most I have paid for my taxes to be prepared, and the only year where I will be filing with an extension (and added stress).To be fair and objective with my feedback, the upfront consultation process went well.

The sellers you are dealing with in these situations don't deal with prorating Taxes, or any other kind of prorations, that is what an escrow agent does. 

So all of the gain and depreciation recapture are initially still tax deferred.However, like Joe said, the down side is later when sold  you lose the 1031 option. the client will pay tax on all gain and depreciation recaptured from before the 1031 also. 

Beyond immediate safety concerns, the long-term financial implications, including taxes, are a pressing issue for those impacted by the disaster.

and that was owner occ.. todays rates are pretty normal actually. what you can do if you want though is find a really good HML and let them place a loan for you making 10 to 12% while your wait for things to change to a situation that you feel you want to move forward be more net return than buying a rental thats for sure. of course no tax bene's but there really is not that much tax benefit on one rental.. so just some alternatives.
