Timely Tax Benefits

If you operate a business out of your Club Auto Sport condo, you can take advantage of significant tax benefits that are set to expire in 2011.

The cost-segregation accounting method is a way to accelerate the depreciation of a real estate investment. Instead of recapturing the cost of your real estate investment over the traditional 39 years, cost segregation lets you break the applicable building components down into 5-year, 7-year and 15-year property.

With the economic recovery still underway, a ruling known as Internal Revenue Code (IRC) Section 179 was extended through 2011 and increased to let owners of commercial real estate write off up to $500,000 of 5-year, 7-year and 15-year property in the first year. This extraordinary deduction - which had been one-fifth of that amount just a few years ago - combined with standard write-offs of real estate taxes and other expenses, can reduce your after-tax cash requirements to nearly zero.
