“@type”: “Question”,
“name”: “What is a family limited partnership (FLP) and how can it benefit real estate investors?”,
“acceptedAnswer”: {
“@type”: “Answer”,
“text”: “A Family Limited Partnership (FLP) is a partnership structure that allows you to transfer real estate to family members at a valuation discount — reducing estate and gift tax. You (the general partner) maintain control of the properties while transferring limited partnership interests to children or trusts at a 15–40% discount to fair market value (because LP interests have no control and limited marketability). For a Loma Linda investor with a $5M real estate portfolio, an FLP could allow you to transfer $1M in LP interests at a taxable gift value of $600,000–$850,000. KDA’s team works with estate planning attorneys to structure FLPs correctly.”

“name”: “How does Airbnb income get reported on my tax return?”,
“acceptedAnswer”: {
“@type”: “Answer”,
“text”: “Airbnb sends a Form 1099-K if you receive more than $600 in payments (2026 threshold). Your income is reported on Schedule E for most STRs, with all allowable deductions netting against gross rental income. If your property qualifies for the STR loophole (average stay ≤7 days, material participation), net losses can offset your other income. KDA’s Loma Linda team will ensure your Airbnb income is reported correctly, all deductions are captured, and your STR loophole eligibility is documented.”

“@type”: “Question”,
“name”: “What expenses can I deduct for my Airbnb or short-term rental property?”,
“acceptedAnswer”: {
“@type”: “Answer”,
“text”: “Beyond the standard rental deductions, Loma Linda STR owners can maximize deductions through: (1) cost segregation study to accelerate depreciation on building components and furnishings; (2) 100% bonus depreciation on all personal property (furniture, appliances, electronics) placed in service in 2026; (3) home office deduction for the space used to manage your STR; (4) vehicle mileage for property visits and supply runs; and (5) education expenses for STR-related courses and conferences. KDA’s comprehensive deduction review typically finds $5,000–$20,000 in additional deductions for STR owners.”

“@type”: “Question”,
“name”: “Should I hire a local real estate CPA or can I work with a national firm remotely?”,
“acceptedAnswer”: {
“@type”: “Answer”,
“text”: “For Loma Linda real estate investors, the most important factor in choosing a CPA is real estate specialization — not physical location. A local generalist CPA who does real estate returns for 10% of their clients is far less valuable than a specialized real estate CPA who works with investors exclusively. KDA Inc. is a specialized real estate tax advisory firm serving Loma Linda investors with deep expertise in California/Arizona tax law, cost segregation, 1031 exchanges, REPS, and the STR loophole. We serve clients both locally and remotely with the same level of expertise.”

“@type”: “Question”,
“name”: “What is a cost segregation study and how does it save taxes?”,
“acceptedAnswer”: {
“@type”: “Answer”,
“text”: “A cost segregation study is performed by a qualified engineer who physically inspects your property and identifies every component eligible for accelerated depreciation. The result is a detailed report that your CPA uses to dramatically front-load your depreciation deductions. KDA’s Loma Linda team works with certified cost segregation engineers and has helped clients generate $50,000–$300,000+ in first-year tax savings from a single study.”

“@type”: “Question”,
“name”: “How does real estate investing affect my ability to contribute to retirement accounts?”,
“acceptedAnswer”: {
“@type”: “Answer”,
“text”: “Real estate investors in Loma Linda often overlook retirement account optimization as part of their overall tax strategy. If you have a property management company or other active real estate income, a Solo 401(k) allows contributions up to $69,000 per year (2026) — creating a massive additional deduction. If you qualify for REPS, your rental income may support even larger contributions. KDA’s real estate CPA team will integrate retirement account planning into your comprehensive tax strategy.”

“@type”: “Question”,
“name”: “Can I do a cost segregation study on a property I’ve owned for years?”,
“acceptedAnswer”: {
“@type”: “Answer”,
“text”: “Yes — and this is one of the most underutilized strategies in real estate tax planning. You can perform a ‘look-back’ cost segregation study on properties you’ve owned for years and catch up all the accelerated depreciation you missed in a single year using a Form 3115 (Change in Accounting Method). This is completely IRS-approved and can generate enormous deductions without amending prior returns. KDA’s Loma Linda team has helped clients generate $100,000–$500,000 in catch-up deductions from properties owned for 5–10 years.”

“@type”: “Question”,
“name”: “What are passive activity loss rules and how do they affect real estate investors?”,
“acceptedAnswer”: {
“@type”: “Answer”,
“text”: “The passive activity rules are the primary obstacle for real estate investors trying to use rental losses to offset their W-2 income. Under Section 469, rental losses are passive and can only offset passive income — unless you qualify for REPS or the STR loophole. Suspended passive losses accumulate and are released when you sell the property or generate passive income. For Loma Linda investors with large suspended passive losses, a strategic sale or the right property acquisition can unlock years of accumulated deductions. KDA’s team will model your passive loss position.”

“@type”: “Question”,
“name”: “What is a 1031 exchange and how can a CPA help me use it?”,
“acceptedAnswer”: {
“@type”: “Answer”,
“text”: “A 1031 exchange (named after IRC Section 1031) allows real estate investors to sell an investment property and defer all capital gains taxes and depreciation recapture by reinvesting the proceeds into a like-kind replacement property. There is no limit on how many times you can exchange, meaning you can defer taxes indefinitely and build wealth on a pre-tax basis. KDA’s Loma Linda real estate CPA team plans 1031 exchanges from the moment you acquire a property — not just when you’re ready to sell — to ensure you maximize the tax deferral.”
}
}, {
“@type”: “Question”,
“name”: “When should a real estate investor hire a CPA?”,
“acceptedAnswer”: {
“@type”: “Answer”,
“text”: “The best time to hire a real estate CPA is before you buy your first investment property — not after. Pre-purchase planning determines your entity structure, how you take title, and whether a cost segregation study makes sense. The second-best time is right now, regardless of where you are in your investing journey. KDA’s Loma Linda team has helped investors at every stage — from first-time landlords to multi-property portfolio owners — unlock significant tax savings.”
