Because I did not buy this on Biggerpockets, am I not able to access the bonus content.

Looking to talk to someone who’s had experience adding a bonus room/sunroom in San Diego.

Bonus, Overtime, and Commission income all typically need a 2 year average either at the same job or in the same line of work.

Bonus depreciation is just a special part of the US tax code.It allows you to take accelerated depreciation on portions of your property depending on when an asset is put into service.At the time of this writing, you can write off a huge portion (60% in 2024) of many qualified components that have a useful lifespan of 15 years or less.That means a certain percentage of things like landscaping, sidewalks, latches, appliances, fences, certain flooring, etc is depreciable in year 1.The bonus depreciation rate percentage changes yearly depending on the administration and the tax code.For years 2015 through 2017 first-year depreciation for all the items on a 15-year schedule or less was set to 50%.It was scheduled to go down to 40% in 2018 and 30% in 2019 and then 0% in 2020.But then Trump got elected, and he enacted the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act.That moved the bonus depreciation percentage to 100% from 2017 to 2022.In 2023 it went down to 80% and it’s currently at 60%.Depending on who gets elected again, 100% may be back on the table.Only time will tell.We know that the US government wants to incentivize more development and ownership of RE.They want Americans to continue to build and maintain our physical world.That’s why real estate is one of the most tax-advantaged assets in the US.Depreciation and bonus depreciation for RE are very positive and will likely continue in the years ahead.

for me, the ones that cashflow the most are the ones that I bought with 3% long term debt, they were new (low maintenance) and they are in high appreciating areas(just a bonus but does not impact cashflow).

Being able to shuffle leads from MTR to MTR is a huge bonus and you can benefit from the economies of scale faster. 

A good tax accountant can save you thousands of dollars by leveraging entity selection and formation, tax deductions, cost segregations, bonus depreciation and tax planning.I recommend finding an accountant who specializes in business taxation, financial planning and tax planning.I would also recommend looking for a accountant willing to work with you throughout the year.

On the other hand, the property management company also gets a bonus for achieving NOI so I expect the entire company has bonuses tied to NOI.The leasing consultants also get a bonus or commission for each lease-up.

The ability to do cost segregation and bonus depreciation3.

My cost basis for my properties are consistently off from my tax returns because Stessa will include everything in the basis even though it shouldn't be.
