How Reinvesting Can Help you Avoid Capital Gains Taxes
Tuesday Apr 19, 2022
Tuesday Apr 19, 2022
How can reinvesting help you avoid capital gains taxes? Jeff Webb and Eliot Thomas of Anderson Advisors answer that question and others about capital gains. Submit your tax question to taxtuesday@andersonadvisors.
Highlights/Topics:
- Is it true that creating a revocable living trust will raise my capital gains taxes if I sell my primary residence vs. if I transfer the house into my name, I must live in it for two to five years to qualify for lower capital gains taxes? If you take advantage of Section 121,You have to live in it for two to five years no matter what. Putting it under the revocable living trust or in your own name, that can be done.
- I have sold a real estate transaction in 2022. Can I avoid capital gains taxes if I purchase another real estate transaction in 2022? It depends. If you have already sold it and received the proceeds from the sale, Section 1031 (like-kind exchange) is no longer available or possible.
- I am a retired person wanting to give a sum of money to my son. How can I advise him regarding deferring taxes on that inheritance money? You don't have to tell your son anything because he's not the one who has to pay taxes on it. The recipient doesn't have to pay tax. It's the grantor, donor, gift giver that may have to pay taxes on it.

How to Reduce Capital Gains Taxes on Your Vacation Home
Tuesday Apr 05, 2022
Tuesday Apr 05, 2022
Are there any strategies to mitigate capital gain tax on the sale of a vacation home? Can you no-tax your vacation home? Toby Mathis and Michael Bowman of Anderson Advisors answer your questions about how to mitigate capital gains taxes. Submit your tax question to taxtuesday@andersonadvisors.
Highlights/Topics:
- For a partnership LLC, can capital gains (such as stock sale) from brokerage account owned by the business be combined/offset with real estate losses *such as depreciation) in the LLC? It depends on the type of real estate. If it's rental real estate, no, unless you’re a real estate professional or active participant in real estate, and you make less than $150,000.
- When I sell a property for 1031 exchange, can I sell 100% ownership of the owning LLC instead of the actual real estate to avoid the transfer taxes, title fees - assuming the LLC is single owner and only owns the subject property, nothing else? You can’t do a 1031 exchange of an entity to try to avoid the transfer taxes and title fees, nor should you. Technically, the change of ownership of an entity, even 50%, is a deemed sale of the underlying asset.
- If I buy an existing home inside an opportunity zone will I be able to save tax on the capital gain, if I keep the property for 10 years? You can buy a piece of property, but you have to double its depreciable basis. If you do that and hold it for at least 10 years, you could step up the basis on any given year to its fair market value and avoid tax on the growth of that asset. Yet, you have to recognize the deferred gain in the 2027 period.
- Our vacation home is in another state and it's solely for personal use and never rented. We've owned it for 10 years. Are there strategies to mitigate capital gains tax on the sale of a vacation home? Do we have to make it our primary residence for two years before we can sell it and get the capital gains exemption? You have to live in your vacation home as your primary residence for two years prior to selling it. Or, make it into an investment property and do a 1031 exchange.

- Why sell when you don’t have to? Instead, you buy, borrow, and step up in basis.

- How long does it take and how much do you get? Depends on quality of equity of stock.
- What could go wrong? You’ll have to come up with more cash or sell to cash.

Why you should consider switching from LLC to S-Corp
Tuesday Mar 22, 2022
Tuesday Mar 22, 2022
Should you consider switching from a Limited Liability Company (LLC) to S corporation? Not if you and your business partner have an LLC for your real estate investments that is an LLC taxed as a partnership. There’s no reason to convert it to an S-Corp.
In this episode of Tax Tuesday, Toby Mathis and Jeff Webb of Anderson Advisors provide answers to your tax questions. Submit your tax question to taxtuesday@andersonadvisors.
Highlights/Topics:
- If I buy an existing home inside an opportunity zone, will I be able to save tax on the capital gain if I keep the property for 10 years? Qualified opportunities had three benefits. The deferral, step-up, and payout. You still get the deferral. It's a shorter deferral now, but you still get it. The step-up in basis is now gone. You've got a 10% step-up in basis of your property that you put into the opportunity zone. The payout is if you hold the property you put in there for 10 years, that's tax free and still exists. The one thing that's missing is that 10% step up-in basis.
- We sold a single family residence in December 2021 and in the process of a 1031 exchange. Can our expenses, such as repairs, painting interior, and replacing carpet, be deducted as expenses, or used to increase the cost basis of the property? Although the word, repairs, was used, carpet and paint is always deductible as a repair. You never capitalize that. Anything that's truly repairs, write it off as a rental expense. If it goes to basis, you're not getting any benefit out of it.
- My business partner and I have an LLC for our real estate investments. Our LLC is taxed as a partnership. Would it be better to convert our LLC to a S corporation? If so, why? No, there’s no reason to convert it to an S-Corp.
- I incorrectly allocated too much building versus land. I understand that my depreciation expense will decrease. How do I correct my tax returns for a basis error on my vacation rental property? This is a change in accounting estimate, which means if it's wrong on last year's return, you go in and correct the numbers on this year's return. If you mess up something on a return, but thought you were correct when you did it, you are not under any legal obligation to go back and restate it.

Revocable vs Irrevocable Trusts: Which is Better for Asset Protection and Taxes?
Tuesday Mar 08, 2022
Tuesday Mar 08, 2022
In this episode of Tax Tuesday, Toby Mathis and Jeff Webb of Anderson Advisors provide answers to your tax questions. Submit your tax question to taxtuesday@andersonadvisors.
Highlights/Topics:
- I bought a property in Georgia in 2021, doing renovations and repairs, planning to rent it out in March 2022. I didn't collect rents in 2021, so, I can't claim this property on my 2021 tax return, correct? Can I deduct the expenses ahead for renovations in 2021 in my next year's tax return, 2022? Correct, you cannot claim those deductions in 2021. They don't disappear, but what happens is the majority of those renovation and repair expenses go into the basis of your property. You will get to depreciate them if you do cost segregation.
- Is YouTube income considered passive or active? It depends on whether you're passively or actively participating. What matters is a test for material participation.
- I manage properties for a relative as an employee of a C-Corp. During a banking transaction, I personally received the rents through Zelle in 2021, the start of 2022. Those rents were then redeposited into the property owner's personal bank account. Will I have a problem with my 2021 tax return? Do I need to issue a 1099 to the property owner for 2022? Never accept payments in your personal name that belonged to somebody else. You're not going to have a problem, but if you did receive a 1099 for this money, then issue a 1099 back to whoever the money was paid to.
- Can you elaborate on revocable versus irrevocable trust from a tax standpoint? A revocable trust is almost like a disregarded entity. It's good for protecting assets—your estate and so forth—from probate, but you can change it every day if you want. The revocable trust is taxed as though it doesn't exist.

How to Write Off Rental Property Expenses
Tuesday Feb 22, 2022
Tuesday Feb 22, 2022
Oh, you did what? I can't believe you did that! Call me next time. Accountants and attorneys could have saved you money. You, too, can annoy and laugh at others at family and social gatherings and parties.
In this episode of Tax Tuesday, Toby Mathis and Jeff Webb of Anderson Advisors discuss how to write off rental property expenses, as well as answer additional tax-related questions. Submit your tax question to taxtuesday@andersonadvisors.
Highlights/Topics:
- Can losses from real estate syndications be taken against active income if you or your spouse are real estate professionals, or is there more criteria? Real estate syndications are treated pretty much the same way that any other type of real estate property would be that's for rent. If you do a cost segregation, you have accelerated depreciation. You can deduct stuff as a real estate professional that you may not be able to deduct as just somebody investing in real estate.
- Can I owner finance or lease purchase a property that currently has a mortgage on my personal name and the deed is titled on my LLC? Yes, you could do this as a Subject 2. They're not taking over the mortgage, they're buying it subject to the existing mortgage.
- Trying to buy a short-term rental. If I sign for the loan personally and title the property in an LLC, would that be considered co-mingling personal assets with LLC to break the corporate veil? No, that doesn't really break the corporate veil, but you should keep the transactions as separate as possible. If you're just buying the property and then transferring it to the LLC, that's not a big deal.
- Can I start filing taxes for LLCs I created for two of my rental homes, even though the real property deeds have not yet been transferred/filed/recorded to said LLCs? It depends on how the LLC is being taxed. If they're disregarded to you personally, report them on your 1040. If it's going through an entity, they're not titled to that entity, that's more problematic. You still have to file the taxes.

Gift Taxes from Real Estate and New IRS Rules on CashApp
Tuesday Feb 08, 2022
Tuesday Feb 08, 2022
Are you going to inherit a house from your parents? Also, how will the new IRS rule on third-party payer apps, such as Venmo and Zelle, affect a landlord to collect rental payments? Beware of gift taxes from real estate, 1099-K and 709 forms, and other tax implications.
In this episode of Tax Tuesday, Toby Mathis and Jeff Webb of Anderson Advisors discuss gift taxes from real estate and new IRS rules on CashApp as well as answer additional tax-related questions. Submit your tax question to taxtuesday@andersonadvisors.
Highlights/Topics:
- I am from Dallas, Texas. My parents have a primary home and rental house. They want to give me their rental house, but they owe $42,000 to the mortgage company. What’s the best way to inherit the house, how do I deal with the gift tax, what tax implications do I need to be aware of, and how can I avoid the taxes if possible? If you are gifted an encumbered property, it decreases the gift amount. Take over the loan, or if you are not able to pay off the loan and the parents continue to pay it, then that would be considered a gift. Otherwise, do nothing.
- Can one circumvent the $16,000 maximum yearly gift tax exclusion by giving $16,000 to multiple persons who in turn also give $16,000 to the same single final recipient? No, you can't do this step transaction, a collapsible transaction. The IRS looks at what happened from the beginning to the end and will find that you actually made that gift yourself to that single recipient.
- How will the new IRS rule on third-party payer apps, such as Venmo, Zelle, etc., affect a landlord to collect rental payments via a phone number or email linked to one bank account. The landlord will get a 1099-K for payments received, which is personal income, but taxable revenues are split amongst rental entities. What’s the best way to handle this? If all the properties are in your name, it will not make any difference. If you have one party collecting for yourself, partnership, or S Corp, then it can create an issue.

In this episode of Tax Tuesday, Toby Mathis and Jeff Webb of Anderson Advisors discuss calculating Airbnb taxes and answer additional tax-related questions.
Submit your tax question to taxtuesday@andersonadvisors.

- When purchasing a self-storage facility, should it be in it’s own LLC and can it be combined in an LLC that already has a property within its entity? It’s recommended to put it into two LLCs: Property in one and business in the other. Always separate them.
- How are taxes calculated when renting only one room in your home for Airbnb? How are the expenses calculated for amenities offered to guests? Depends on if it is a rental or for a business. There are two kinds of expenses that need to be calculated - direct (only applies to specific rental space) and indirect (utilities, mortgage interest, homeowners association fees, etc.).
