Big Beautiful Real Estate?
Big News in Real Estate (That Could Actually Save You Money)
Heads up—some serious changes just landed in the real estate world thanks to a new federal bill called the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (yes, that’s really the name—clearly a Trump Thing).
Whether you're buying your first home, moving up, or growing your investment portfolio, this thing is packed with new tax perks and financial tools worth knowing about.
Here’s the quick and dirty:
🏡 Buying a home?
The mortgage insurance deduction is back. That’s potentially $2,000+ a year in tax savings if you're putting less than 20% down. The SALT deduction cap also got a major bump—from $10K to $40K. For Colorado buyers in higher-tax areas, this is hyuuuge. Sorry. Couldn't resist.
💸 Investing or Developing?
100% bonus depreciation and extended Section 179 expensing are back. Translation: you can write off a big chunk of your costs in year one. That’s real money back in your pocket if you’re buying rentals or flipping.
🏘 Opportunity Zones & Affordable Housing?
The bill enhances low-income housing credits and locks in Opportunity Zone perks. That means stronger returns and a shot at doing some good along the way.
🏢 LLC, REIT, or Partnership Income?
The 20% pass-through deduction just became permanent. That’s a long-term win if you’re earning through a real estate entity.
BOTTOM LINE
Trump's goal, like him or hate him, is to see the economy bigger and more beautful than ever. There's even talk about elimimating captial gains tax on home sales. That would also have to go through Congress, but it's something to watch. Do you have a property you'd sell if proceeds from the sale weren't taxed?
In the end, the thing to know is that there’s real money on the table—but only if you know how to play the game. That’s where I come in.
📅 Let’s connect. Whether you're buying, investing, or just curious what this could mean for you, I'll help you sort through the noise and find the angle that works in your favor.
