6 Real Estate Tax Mistakes That Could Cost You Thousands

Real estate tax mistakes are unfortunately quite common. Whether it’s not depreciating your rental property correctly, limiting yourself on expenses you can write-off, or assuming a certain deduction will flag you for an audit—there are many ways real estate investors could be pocketing more profit with less paid in taxes. So, before you start your 2022 tax filing, make sure that you’ve maximized your deductions and minimized your taxable income for this coming tax season!

Two people who have seen almost every real estate tax mistake around are Amanda Han and Matt MacFarland from Keystone CPA.
