Managing Director of Engineered Tax Services Discussed How Tax Policy Trends May Affect Real Estate

LOS ANGELES - Dec. 13, 2017 - PRLog -- Managing Director of Engineered Tax Services (ETS), Michael F. D'Onofrio, spoke today in Los Angeles about tax policy updates at the RETHINK: Emerging Macro Trends in Real Estate lunch workshop, How Current Tax Policy Trends May Affect the Next 10 Years of Real Estate Values & Investments. Mr. D'Onofrio also covered the Trump Administration's latest proposed tax policy updates, new opportunities recently created, as well as recent changes in energy incentives and specialty tax credits.

Mr. D'Onofrio explained the possibility of new challenges, but also many existing ways for property owners to potentially improve cash flow.

"Tax policy is changing going forward, but some of the most sophisticated and savvy real estate investors and family offices are still unaware of powerful existing and retroactive opportunities to capture substantial immediate cost savings and tax benefits. Utilizing proven engineering-based strategies like cost segregation on the purchase or new construction of a property, maximizing dispositions and bonus depreciation on improvements, and even proactively preparing a property to be sold to maximize capital gains is critical," said Mr. D'Onofrio.

The RETHINK: Emerging Macro Trends in Real Estate luncheon is the 8th annual Southern California commercial real estate conference. Today's conference tackled hot topics and trends affecting the future of development for commercial and multifamily real estate and investment. The conference was a place for top minds in the real estate, energy, transportation, and public policy industries to network and mingle.
