Perhaps you have considered real estate investment, drawn to the idea of generating passive income. Or Maybe you already own investment property and would like to add to your portfolio. Regardless of where you fall on the spectrum it’s important to understand not only the real estate market, but also the tax benefits of rental property, or owning investment property. Making a smart real estate investment will allow you to retire with rental income with out overpaying Uncle Sam. 
When Should I Invest
You may wonder when the right time would be to jump into the market. Well, the time is now. With homeownership rates at their lowest level in 50 years, now might be a good time to explore the opportunity. There are several factors for the shift away from homeownership. The fast rise in home values making them less affordable, and young Americans. The millennials are holding off on life decisions such as marriage and buying a home until later in their life. The resulting trend is that they are staying in rentals well into their 30’s. Renters in the baby boomer generation has also increased. With all these factors in place creates a booming rental market. With renter households growing at a faster rate than owner households, landlords are at an advantage in the rental market.

Tax Benefits of Rental Property/Cash in under the new law
How does the new law effect investors? The 2018 Tax Changes have taken away some benefits from home owners but gave real estate investors additional deductions. Owners of investment properties could get up to 20 percent deduction of their net rental income. This tax benefit of rental properties has been overshadowed by the changes in deductions for home owners. The tax benefits of rental property for investors will reduce the mortgage interest and property tax deductions, but do not apply to interest and property taxes.
