When it comes to real estate investing for beginners and experts alike, the cost associated with buying and selling real estate is serious. A lot of people underestimate it. They think that you can buy an asset for X, sell it for Y, and in turn make a lot of money. What they don’t factor in are the people and entities that surround each deal, not to mention the time that must be invested in a property deal which can be anywhere from 6-12 months. This includes vetting brokers, preparing memorandu...

This episode is about bonus depreciation. It explains that certain assets, such as computers and fuel for cars, can be fully deducted in the year of purchase since their useful life is not more than one year. On the other hand, buildings have a longer useful life, typically 39 years for commercial properties and 27.5 years for residential properties, so their cost is deducted over time. However, there are components of buildings, like sidewalks and HVAC systems, that have shorter useful lives an...
