April Luncheon's Tax Experts Gave Tips to Demystify Tax Changes

The new tax laws have created as many questions as answers about what the changes will mean to tax payers and businesses. At CREWNY's April luncheon, four panelists - all tax experts - shared their expertise and insights in a program entitled, "Tax Reform & Real Estate: Demystified."
Among the advice: think carefully about converting to a corporation to take advantage of the new reduction in corporate tax rates as converting back can be complicated and create other taxable issues; there are many areas where clarification from the IRS is still needed; while mortgage interest and city/state income tax deductions are limited, rental property deductions are not; the 20% "automatic reduction" in business income is not actually automatic - and there are exceptions and conditions; brokers may or may not be eligible for the deduction dependent on income, but architects and engineers will qualify.
