It’s the end of the year, which means (whether we It’s the end of the year, which means (whether we like it or not) tax season is approaching, and a little prep can go a long way for real estate investors. Getting organized now reduces stress and helps ensure you’re maximizing every deduction. Here are three key areas to focus on before April arrives 👇

1. Track and Organize Your Expenses

Start collecting every receipt and invoice tied to your rental property - maintenance, utilities, insurance, interest statements, management fees, marketing, mileage, and professional services. Clear, detailed records make it easier for your accountant to capture all eligible write-offs.

2. Know the Difference Between Repairs and Capital Improvements

Repairs are routine fixes that keep your property functioning, like patching drywall or replacing a broken fixture, and they’re usually deductible in the year they occur. Capital improvements - such as new flooring, major renovations, or a new roof - add long-term value and typically need to be depreciated over time. Proper documentation ensures your accountant classifies these correctly.

3. Understand Depreciation for Short-Term vs. Long-Term Rentals

Depreciation rules can differ depending on how your property is used. Long-term rentals generally follow standard residential depreciation. Short-term rentals, however, may fall under different guidelines and, in some cases, qualify for accelerated depreciation, depending on how often the property is rented and how actively you manage it. Gather purchase documents, cost breakdowns, and records of major upgrades so your accountant can apply the right method.

By organizing expenses, properly documenting improvements, and understanding how your rental type affects depreciation, you’ll make tax time smoother - and potentially more profitable. If you need guidance or a referral to a trusted tax pro, we're always here to help!

This holiday season, we wanted to focus on what tr This holiday season, we wanted to focus on what truly makes this time of year special - connection, kindness, and community. In lieu of client gifts, The Kearns Group chose to sponsor a local mom and her three boys through My Friend's House, our community’s women’s shelter. Thanks to this program, their gifts have been delivered, and this mom will get to experience the joy of giving her boys everything on their wish lists 🎁

Being part of creating that kind of holiday magic is a reminder of how powerful small acts of generosity can be, and we’re so grateful to share in the spirit of giving with the community we’re proud to call home 🫶

Wishing you and your loved ones a warm, joyful holiday season and a bright start to the New Year! ✨️
