How 2025 Tax Changes Could Reshape Real Estate Investing
What BiggerPockets Members Can Do Now
You don’t have to be a tax expert. But the name of the game? Be proactive, not reactive.
Smart investors can do the following:
- Talk to a CPA who understands real estate.
- Consider whether a cost segregation study makes sense or wait for more information on bonus depreciation.
- Review your legal and trust structures.
- Consider accelerating purchases before depreciation phases out.
- Reassess whether you should be using 1031 exchanges now.
Where Turnkey Fits In
We love working with Rent To Retirement because they don’t just sell turnkey rental properties; they help investors plan for tax efficiency and long-term wealth.
They’ve built a national network of tax advisors, lenders, and markets where you can still buy fully renovated, cash-flowing rentals with depreciation and cost seg potential already in mind. And their inventory is in states with landlord-friendly laws and better overall tax profiles.
Whether you’re just getting started or trying to grow a $5 million portfolio without the headaches of rehabs and local teams, RTR helps make that possible and ensures you’re buying with all the important factors of real estate investing in mind.
Final Thoughts
2025 might be the last year of “tax rules as we know them.” And while we can’t predict what Congress will do, one thing is clear: The best investors don’t just buy properties; they buy time, options, and act wisely.
Take advantage of what we still have, and prepare for what’s ahead.
