Landlord's, The Tax Deduction, You Should Know About and your CPA may not tell you about.
Landlord's, The Tax Deduction, You Should Know About and your CPA may not tell you about.
by John Racine
Investment real estate provides different things for different investors. Some buy real estate for the hopes of appreciation, some investors buy real estate for monthly cash flow, and still others purchase investment real estate for the tax benefits. There is a large portion of the investment community that buys for all of these reasons. So, what type of investor are you?
Congress, along with the Internal Revenue Service, provides a great many financial benefits for those who invest in real estate. From subsidized housing programs like Section 8 to the Gulf Opportunity Zone (GO Zone), real estate is as attractive an investment as it has ever been, thanks in large part to the federal government. The tax benefits of investing in real estate can oftentimes increase the ROI immensely.
Take a piece of rental property, for example. The IRS allows a multitude of tax deductions, including: mortgage interest, travel, tenant background checks, repairs, utilities, advertising, landscaping, pest control, professional fees and the list goes on. These are all expenses as categorized by the IRS. Whenever you have one of these expenses, you'll most likely write a check or use your credit card to pay for it. So if you collect $1500 in rent, and then pay all of these expenses, you may have $250 left over in your account at the end of that month. That's not too bad when you invest in real estate for cash flow.
There is however, another " expense", the IRS allows you to take. It is called depreciation. Although depreciation is classified as an expense, you do not write a check to pay for it. Depreciation allows you to spread the cost of the building out over a period of time, and to take a portion of that purchase price over that time. Commercial buildings typically have a depreciation period of 39 years, while residential buildings have a depreciation period of 27.5 years. Depreciation is considered only on the building, the cost of the land has to be removed before calculating the annual depreciation. Let's look at example:
| Home Purchase Price: |
$200,000 |
| Land Value: |
$40,000 |
| Building Amount to Be Depreciated: |
$160,000 |
As you can see, we have a home purchase price of $200,000 and the land was valued at $40,000. What we subtract the $40000 and land value from the total purchase price of $200,000, we are left with a building value of $160,000. According to the current IRS rules, this $160,000 can now be spread out over 27.5 years. So take the $160,000/27.5 = $5,818.18 per year.
The building is not the only part of your rental property that can be depreciated, however. The IRS Tax Code also allows you to depreciate the "personal property", called Chattel. In addition, the IRS allows you to accelerate this depreciation over a shorter period of 5 to 15 years. Let's look at a little bit of background on how this IRS tax deduction came about. A court case called Hospital Corporation of America vs. Comm [109 TC 21 (1977)] makes all this possible. This case rules, that is permissible to separate Section 1245 property from Section 1250 property. Your CPA should be familiar with section 1245 property and section 1250 property. After this case was settled, the IRS issued an Audit Techniques Guide (http://www.irs.gov/businesses/small/article/0,,id=108149,00.html) on cost segregation. In this guide, the IRS describes several methods for determining the value of Section 1245 property. One of the methods is the "Residual Estimate Approach."
Basically, what this allows a rental property owner to do is segregate the value of the personal property, or chattel, and accelerate the depreciation on its’ value over a period of 5 or 15 years.
|
|
|
|
|
So what is chattel? The IRS has identified over 65 items that qualify as chattel, including: flooring, cabinets, countertops, lighting, blinds, appliances, landscaping, walkways, driveways, swimming pools etc. So just how much chattel is there in a rental property? A conservative amount to use is 10% of the purchase price. Many times, this percentage is much higher. Let's go back to our original example above and use a chattel amount of 10%:
| Home Purchase Price: |
$200,000 |
| Land Value: |
$40,000 |
| Chattel Value: |
$20,000 |
| Building Amount to Be Depreciated: |
$140,000 |
Let's now compute our new depreciation amount, including the value of the chattel:
| Building Depreciation: |
$140,000/27.5 = $5,090.91 |
| Chattel Depreciation: |
$20,000/5 (years allowed) = $4000 |
| Total Depreciation |
$5,090.91+ $4000 = $9,090.91 |
| Additional Depreciation |
$9,090.91 - $5,818.18 = $3272.73 |
By segregating the value of the chattel from the value of the building we are an additional tax deduction of $3272.73. Let's look at actual dollar savings:
| Depreciation Amount |
$5,818.18 x 25% Tax Bracket = $1454.55 |
| Depreciation Amount with Chattel: |
$9,090.91 x 25% Tax Bracket = $2272.73 |
| Tax Savings |
$2272.73 - $1454.55 = $818.18 |
Keep in mind, these are conservative numbers. So, now you may be thinking, what are the drawbacks? You should always check with your tax adviser before employing a new tax strategy. The most common question about chattel is the concept of a recapture and the recapture tax when you sell the property. You may already be aware, you pay recapture with the straight-line 27.5 year depreciation. Recapture does also apply to the accelerated depreciation taken through this tax strategy.
Let's talk briefly about recapture and the recapture tax. A recapture tax is applied when ever a depreciated asset is sold. The recaptured amount is subject to a maximum rate of 25%. The recapture tax percentage rate is based on the investors’ income tax rate, and is capped at 25%. This allows you to keep the 75%, and utilize the Time Value of Money to create more investments. Let's use our example above, to illustrate recapture. We will assume the investment property was held for five years before being sold:
| Home Purchase Price: |
$200,000 |
| Depreciation Taken: |
$9,090.91 x 5 (years) = $45,454.55 |
| Home Sale Price: |
$250,000 |
| Recapture Tax: |
$45,454.55 x 25% (max rate) = $11,363.64 |
| Amount Kept by Investor: |
$45,454.55 - $11,363.64 = $34,090.91 |
How many additional properties could your purchase with $34,090.91 available? Is it one, three, or more?
Now, the $50,000, which is the difference between our selling price of $250,000 and our original purchase price of $200,000, is subject to capital gain. That is, unless you have utilized another strategy such as the 1031 Exchange or a Charitable Remainder Trust. The depreciation amount is not subject to capital gain. Again, always check with your tax adviser before making a tax strategy decision.
Congress and the IRS have made real estate such an attractive investment opportunity, it pays to utilize every strategy of available to maximize your cash flow and lower your taxes. Ask your tax advisor about a chattel appraisal and a cost segregation study and start using the tax code to you now r advantage!

The Money Merge Account consists of three major components:
1. Your Existing Primary mortgage:
The existing mortgage on your home is the foundation for the Money Merge Account.
2. An Advanced Line of Credit (ALOC)
The MA Program uses an advanced equity line of credit as a vehicle or a tool to drive the program. The equity line of credit must have the capacity to operate similarly to a primary checking account and be set up with an open-end interest calculation (rather than a closed-end interest calculation). Combined with the MMA's web-based system, this creates a formula in which the money in your line of credit account generates an interest cancellation on your primary mortgage.
3. MMA software
The online MA system makes a connection between your bank account, the advanced line of credit, and your primary mortgage. Each time you deposit income into your account, it registers as a decrease to your mortgage balance. By decreasing your mortgage balance, you now lower the balance on which interest accrues. By decreasing the balance on which interest accrues, you increase the portion of your monthly payment which is credited toward your principal pay down. The algorithms in the proprietary MMA system are systematically programmed to create the highest interest savings possible in the least amount of time.
