What happens when you sell a rental property after taking depreciation deductions? Many investors are shocked to learn they may owe more than just capital gains tax. In this episode, Thomas Castelli and Nate Sosa break down how depreciation recapture actually works, including the three different tax “buckets” investors need to understand: Section 1245 recapture, unrecaptured Section 1250 gain, and Section 1231 capital gains. They explain how bonus depreciation, cost segregation studies, and qualified improvement property impact your taxes when you sell and why accelerated depreciation can still make sense despite future recapture. If you own rental properties, short-term rentals, or commercial real estate, this episode will help you understand what taxes to expect when exiting a deal and how to plan ahead to minimize them.

Should your real estate syndication use an S corporation, a C corporation, or an LLC taxed as a partnership? In this episode, Thomas Castelli and Nate Sosa break down the real tax implications behind entity structuring for syndicators, fund managers, and passive investors. They explain why LLCs taxed as partnerships are typically the gold standard for real estate syndications, where S corps can accidentally limit depreciation benefits, and how C corps can create double taxation problems that investors often overlook. You’ll also learn: - Why depreciation and debt allocation matter so much in syndications - The hidden limitations of S corps for real estate investors - When a C-corp blocker actually makes sense - How GP entities and management companies should be structured - The biggest mistakes syndicators make before raising capital Request a free discovery meeting: go.therealestatecpa.com/mlre Get the Ultimate Guide for Real Estate Syndications: go.therealestatecpa.com/mlreultimateguide Subscribe to the REI Daily Newsletter: go.therealestatecpa.com/mlresubscriber Submit your questions to: go.therealestatecpa.com/question The Major League Real Estate podcast is for general information purposes only and is not intended to provide, and should not be relied on for, tax, legal, investing, financial, or accounting advice.

In this episode, we’re breaking down one of the biggest misconceptions in real estate investing: the idea that you need to rush to file your taxes by April 15. If you’ve ever felt pressure to get your K-1s out early, file on time, or keep investors happy by hitting arbitrary deadlines, this episode is for you. We discuss why tax extensions are not only normal in the world of real estate syndications and funds, but often the smarter move. Rushing the process can lead to costly mistakes, amended returns, and unnecessary headaches for both operators and investors. You’ll learn how to properly set expectations with your LPs, why accuracy matters more than speed, and what really happens when you file without complete information. We also cover key lessons from this tax season, including common misunderstandings around bonus depreciation, passive losses, and how income from things like high-yield accounts can create unexpected tax implications. Plus, we walk through what you should be doing right now, post tax season, to review your returns, improve your processes, and plan ahead for the rest of the year.
