“@type”: “Question”,
“name”: “Can a real estate CPA help me if I only own one rental property?”,
“acceptedAnswer”: {
“@type”: “Answer”,
“text”: “Yes — and in many cases, a single rental property owner benefits the most from professional guidance because they’re less likely to know the strategies available to them. A cost segregation study on a single property can generate $15,000–$40,000 in first-year deductions. Proper passive activity loss tracking can unlock deductions in future years. KDA’s Cornville team makes these strategies accessible to investors at every level.”

“name”: “Is Arizona a good state for real estate investors from a tax perspective?”,
“acceptedAnswer”: {
“@type”: “Answer”,
“text”: “Arizona ranks among the most tax-friendly states for real estate investors. The 2.5% flat income tax is dramatically lower than California, New York, or Illinois. There is no estate tax or inheritance tax. The regulatory environment is investor-friendly. And Arizona’s real estate markets — particularly Cornville — have shown strong appreciation and rental demand. From a pure tax and investment perspective, Arizona is one of the best states in the country to own investment real estate. KDA’s team will help you maximize every Arizona tax advantage.”

“name”: “How do I handle real estate investments in a divorce?”,
“acceptedAnswer”: {
“@type”: “Answer”,
“text”: “Divorce involving real estate creates complex tax issues for Cornville property owners. Key points: (1) transfers of property between spouses incident to divorce are generally tax-free under IRC Section 1041 — no gain or loss is recognized; (2) the receiving spouse takes the transferring spouse’s adjusted basis (including accumulated depreciation); (3) if the marital home is sold, the Section 121 exclusion may apply if both spouses meet the ownership and use tests; (4) rental property transferred in divorce retains its depreciation schedule and passive loss history. KDA’s Cornville team will advise on the tax implications of real estate division in divorce and help you negotiate the most tax-efficient settlement.”

“@type”: “Question”,
“name”: “What is a real estate syndication and how is it taxed?”,
“acceptedAnswer”: {
“@type”: “Answer”,
“text”: “A real estate syndication pools capital from multiple investors to purchase larger properties — apartment complexes, commercial buildings, industrial facilities — that individual investors couldn’t afford alone. Syndications are typically structured as LLCs or limited partnerships, with a general partner (the operator) and limited partners (the investors). Tax treatment: investors receive a K-1 showing their share of income, losses, depreciation, and other items. Passive losses from syndications are subject to passive activity rules — they can only offset passive income unless you qualify for REPS. KDA’s Cornville team advises both syndication operators and investors on tax optimization.”

“name”: “What real estate deductions do most investors miss?”,
“acceptedAnswer”: {
“@type”: “Answer”,
“text”: “The biggest missed deductions we find for Cornville real estate investors are: (1) look-back cost segregation studies on properties owned 3–10 years; (2) passive loss carryforwards from prior years that are now deductible; (3) the QBI 20% deduction on qualifying rental income; (4) vehicle and travel expenses; (5) home office for portfolio management; and (6) depreciation on furniture and appliances in furnished rentals. Our free consultation includes a deduction gap analysis to identify exactly what you’ve been missing.”

“@type”: “Question”,
“name”: “How can I use a self-directed IRA to invest in real estate?”,
“acceptedAnswer”: {
“@type”: “Answer”,
“text”: “Using a self-directed IRA to invest in Cornville real estate combines two of the most powerful wealth-building tools available. Rental income flows back into the IRA tax-deferred or tax-free, and when you eventually sell, the gain is sheltered from current taxation. The critical compliance requirements — no self-dealing, no personal use, all expenses paid from the IRA — require careful planning. KDA’s Cornville real estate CPA team has extensive experience with SDIRA real estate investments and will ensure your structure is compliant.”

“@type”: “Question”,
“name”: “What is the tax treatment of real estate options?”,
“acceptedAnswer”: {
“@type”: “Answer”,
“text”: “Real estate options are a sophisticated tool for Cornville investors that require careful tax planning. For the option holder: the premium is added to basis if exercised (no current deduction), or becomes a capital loss if the option lapses. For the option grantor: the premium is deferred until the option is exercised or lapses. If the option is exercised, the premium is added to the sale proceeds. If it lapses, the premium is recognized as income in the year of lapse. The character of the income (ordinary vs. capital) depends on whether the grantor is a dealer or investor. KDA’s team will structure your option transactions to achieve the optimal tax outcome.”

“@type”: “Question”,
“name”: “What is the difference between active, passive, and portfolio income for real estate investors?”,
“acceptedAnswer”: {
“@type”: “Answer”,
“text”: “Understanding the three income categories is fundamental to real estate tax planning for Cornville investors. Rental income is passive — no self-employment tax, but losses are trapped in the passive bucket unless you qualify for REPS or the STR loophole. Capital gains from property sales are portfolio income — taxed at favorable long-term rates (0%, 15%, or 20%) plus NIIT for high earners. Active real estate income (flipping, real estate agent commissions) is subject to both income tax and self-employment tax. KDA’s team will structure your activities to minimize taxes across all three categories.”

“name”: “How does the One Big Beautiful Bill Act affect real estate investors in 2026?”,
“acceptedAnswer”: {
“@type”: “Answer”,
“text”: “The One Big Beautiful Bill Act (OBBBA), signed July 4, 2025, is the most significant tax legislation for real estate investors since the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017. Key provisions for Cornville investors: (1) 100% bonus depreciation permanently restored for qualifying property placed in service after January 19, 2025; (2) TCJA individual income tax rates made permanent (37% top rate); (3) QBI deduction made permanent at 20%; (4) Section 179 limit increased; (5) estate tax exemption increased. For real estate investors, the permanent restoration of 100% bonus depreciation is the headline provision — it transforms cost segregation strategy from a temporary to a permanent planning tool.”
