Real Estate Investor
Real estate tax, coordinated with the rest of your return.
Depreciation, cost segregation, the material-participation rules, real-estate-professional status, short-term rentals, and exchanges — coordinated with the rest of your return, not treated as a bolt-on.
Real-Estate Depth
The areas where real estate gets complicated.
Descriptions below are general education, not advice. Specific tax positions depend on your facts and are confirmed in an engagement.
Depreciation

Material participation & REP
The hours tests behind real-estate-professional status and non-passive treatment.
Entity coordination
Holding structures that work together, not against each other.
Cost segregation
When a study may make sense to front-load depreciation — and when it won’t.
Short-term rentals
When STR activity is treated differently — and the traps that undo it.
Documentation & basis
Tracking basis and support so positions hold up over time.
Placed-in-service timing
The dates that determine when deductions actually begin.
Sales & exchanges
1031 exchanges, basis, and how a sale lands across your entities.
