New Tax Law & R.E. Investors

Date: January 4, 2018

The content is customized for real estate investors

What we will cover:

 

Choice of Entity has radically changed.  Both “pass-thru” entities and C-Corporations have been radically altered by the new law – and very much for the better.  But as usual, Congress’ changes are not simple.  We will spend a big chunk of the call making sense of the changes.

 

So-called “PASS-THRU” entities get up to a TWENTY PERCENT DISCOUNT ON TAXES.  We will cover:

  • Which entities are included – and which are not
  • Which Landlords get the discount – and which do not
  • How flippers need to adjust their tax structure to qualify
  • How real estate agents can qualify
  • Hard money lenders can qualify – should they? There are subtle issues in play.
  • TO.  GET.  TWENTY.  PERCENT.  OFF.  YOUR.  TAXES.

 

C-Corporations have a new 21% tax bracket.  This change is profound and long overdue.  We will cover:

  • How to save TENS OF THOUSANDS of dollars by using C-Corporations for Tax Bracket Arbitrage
  • How to cut your UBIT tax by almost half when investing via IRA’s & 401k’s
  • How to avoid a hidden & subtle 40% C-Corporation tax
  • Which properties should be run through a C-Corporation – and which should not
  • IRS strategies for unwinding your C-Corporation savings

 

Poorly covered MASSIVE DEPRECIATION GIVEAWAYS for landlords and AirBNBer’s:  I am amazed at how little press some massive changes to the depreciation laws have received.  We will cover:

  • How the new law allows you to IMMEDIATELY WRITE-OFF TEN PERCENT OF RENTAL PROPERTIES acquired after January 1, 2018
  • New law that allows you to IMMEDIATELY WRITE-OFF carpet, appliances, cabinets, blinds and more – even if such acquisitions are not of brand new property.
  • New rules for car write-offs (hint: more, more, more)

 

More, more, more:

  • The new (and awesome) tax brackets
  • Which tax breaks went away and which ones stayed (lots of rumors and bad info out there)
  • New Limitations on Deducting Interest Paid – and how to get around some of them
  • Simplified Accounting Rule for Rehabbers
  • How the new limitations on Net Operating Losses will actually help you – and how to make sure of it
  • What happened to 1031’s and the “sell your home tax-free” rules
  • Major gift & estate tax changes
  • Major changes to “Meals & Entertainment” deductions
  • Changes for “Sweat Equity” aka “Carried Interests” (How Romney made his money)
  • How to maximize charitable contribution & tithing deductions
  • Why paying your children to work is more important than ever
  • Changes to the AMT
  • New child tax credits
  • Some new UBIT & Roth IRA rules
  • 529 Plans expanded
  • New Alimony rules
  • Moving expenses
  • Adoption tax credit
  • New write-offs for disabled individuals
  • Changes to the “Kiddie Tax” (passive income earned by kids)
