Summary

President Trump's newly signed "One Big Beautiful Bill Act" has made the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act provisions permanent, creating massive opportunities for real estate investors to reduce their tax burden and potentially save thousands of dollars on their 2025 returns. On this episode of On The Market, host Dave Meyer and CPA Brandon Hall break down the most significant tax code changes included in the new legislation. They'll touch on the permanent extension of 100% bonus depreciation, the increased SALT deduction cap and QBI deduction for pass-through entities. With housing prices remaining elevated and mortgage rates still impacting affordability, these permanent tax advantages could be the key to maintaining profitability and cash flow in today's changing real estate market.

0:00.0	President Trump signed the one big beautiful bill act into law on July 4th, and there are some
0:05.6	huge potential implications for real estate investors. Tax code changes can be complicated, and
0:11.6	there were numerous different versions of this bill that floated around before the final
0:16.4	bill that passed in the House and Senate was actually finalized. So today we're going to break down what's actually in the bill and how it can save you money on your 2025 returns.
0:31.6	Hey everyone, it's Dave. Welcome back to another episode of All the Market.
0:36.6	We're talking about President Trump's big, beautiful bill today.
0:41.3	We're going to get into bonus depreciation, salt caps, pass-through deductions, and much more.
0:48.3	These tax code nuances might not be the most exciting thing out there, but understanding them can absolutely
0:56.2	increase your returns and really help your financial position. However, I am absolutely not a tax
1:02.9	expert. So joining us today is Brandon Hall to help us unpack this whole thing.
1:08.6	Brandon is a CPA and a real estate investor himself, and his
1:12.1	practice is devoted exclusively to helping real estate investors optimize their tax strategies.

1:33.3	We are excited to have you on here to help us understand the tax implications for both Americans and specifically for real estate investors. Let's start big picture. Can you tell us at the highest
1:39.3	level what's in this bill from a tax perspective? I mean, the main thing is that a lot of the 2017 tax
1:45.9	cuts in Jobs Act, the Trump tax cuts, are now made permanent. So like things like 100% bonus
1:51.3	appreciation, for example, is now permanent. So I would say that's like the main crux of this
1:56.3	bill. There's also a lot of other provisions in there as well. This bill also fixes some things that
2:01.0	were like phasing out. So like R&D tax credits, you can now retroactively apply those. So stuff
2:07.2	like that. But that's the main takeaway is that it's primarily making the 2017 TCJA tax cuts
