Real Estate Tax Planning: Depreciation, 1031 Exchanges, and Passive Losses

· · 100 min

About this webinar

Real estate clients generate some of the most valuable — and most error-prone — tax planning opportunities a CPA will handle.

This session covers depreciation strategy, like-kind (Section 1031) exchanges, and the passive activity loss rules that determine whether those benefits actually reach the return.

Expect practical examples and the documentation habits that keep positions defensible.

What you'll learn

  • Apply depreciation rules and elections to maximize the benefit of real property and improvements.
  • Structure a Section 1031 like-kind exchange and identify the timing and identification requirements.
  • Navigate the passive activity loss rules and the real estate professional exception.
  • Document positions to withstand IRS examination.
