Real Estate Investing: The Tax Perspective

Today on “Terra Firma: Conversations on Commercial Real Estate,” hosts Stacey Tyler and Stephen Tanico talk with tax attorneys and Lowenstein colleagues Sophia Mokotoff and Matthew F. Cammarata about important tax issues to keep in mind in the real estate world, such as long-term capital gains versus ordinary income, and holding property for investment versus holding property as part of your active trade or business. They also address how items such as transfer tax differ amongst states, the benefits of setting up an LLC or a pass-through entity, depreciation, and deductions; and they provide strategies for how real estate investors and developers can be more proactive from a tax perspective.
