Depreciation is a tax deduction that allows you to recover the cost of the property over time.<\/p>\n<p>When you inherit a rental property, the tax basis of the property is stepped-up to its fair market value at the time of the original owner&#8217;s death. This new basis is used to calculate depreciation, just like it would be for a property you purchased yourself.<\/p>\n<p>Depreciation is calculated based on the value of the property, excluding the value of the land. The property must have a determinable useful life, be used in a business or for the production of income, and be expected to last more than one year in order to be depreciated.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Related_or_similar_FAQs\"><\/span>Related or similar FAQs:<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"1_Can_I_continue_to_depreciate_rental_property_after_it_has_been_fully_depreciated\"><\/span>1.

How is depreciation calculated for rental property?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Depreciation is calculated based on the cost basis of the property, divided by the number of years over which the property is expected to last. <\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"3_Can_I_claim_depreciation_on_rental_property_that_is_not_currently_being_rented_out\"><\/span>3. Can I claim depreciation on rental property that is not currently being rented out?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Yes, you can still claim depreciation on rental property that is not currently being rented out, as long as you are holding the property for the production of income.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"4_Is_there_a_limit_to_how_much_depreciation_I_can_claim_on_rental_property\"><\/span>4. Is there a limit to how much depreciation I can claim on rental property?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>There is no limit to the amount of depreciation you can claim on rental property, as long as the property is being used for the production of income.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"5_What_happens_to_depreciation_when_I_sell_rental_property\"><\/span>5. What happens to depreciation when I sell rental property?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>When you sell rental property, you may need to recapture some or all of the depreciation that you have claimed over the years. This recaptured depreciation is taxed at a different rate than regular capital gains.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"6_Can_I_choose_not_to_depreciate_rental_property\"><\/span>6. Can I choose not to depreciate rental property?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>You are not required to depreciate rental property, but it is generally beneficial to do so in order to maximize your tax deductions.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"7_Do_I_have_to_recapture_depreciation_when_I_inherit_rental_property\"><\/span>7. Do I have to recapture depreciation when I inherit rental property?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>No, when you inherit rental property, the basis of the property is stepped up, so you do not have to recapture any depreciation that may have been claimed by the previous owner.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"8_How_does_depreciation_affect_my_taxes\"><\/span>8. How does depreciation affect my taxes?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Depreciation reduces your taxable income, which in turn reduces the amount of tax you owe.

Can I deduct repairs and improvements on rental property in addition to depreciation?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Yes, you can deduct repairs and improvements on rental property in addition to depreciation. However, repairs are deducted in the year they are made, while improvements are capitalized and depreciated over time.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"10_Can_I_claim_depreciation_on_personal_property_inside_a_rental_property\"><\/span>10.
