Are You Maximizing Depreciation the Right Way in 2026?

Описание: Depreciation can make a rental property look “unprofitable” on paper while generating real cash flow in your bank account. That is not a loophole. That is the tax code working as designed.

But here is what most investors miss: depreciation is a timing strategy, not a free-money strategy.

In this episode, we break down how real estate depreciation actually works, how cost segregation interacts with 100% bonus depreciation under current IRS guidance, and why passive loss rules and depreciation recapture matter more than most online content admits.

If you are a high-income investor, own rental property, or are considering a purchase in 2026, this conversation is critical. A deduction only creates value if you can use it. And if you accelerate depreciation without understanding exit planning, you may simply be shifting taxes forward instead of building long-term wealth.

In this video, we cover:

• How residential and commercial real estate depreciation schedules work
• Why land is not depreciable and how allocation impacts your strategy
• When cost segregation makes sense and when it does not
• How 100% bonus depreciation fits under current law
• The reality of passive activity rules for high earners
• What depreciation recapture means when you sell
• Why depreciation is a wealth-planning decision, not just a tax decision

Depreciation is powerful. But power without structure creates risk.

At AMG, we believe tax strategy must support cash flow, risk management, and long-term exit planning. If you want clarity around how depreciation fits into your broader real estate strategy, this episode will help you think differently.
