Caitlin and I are often asked whether it makes more sense from a tax perspective for a real estate investor to put all of their funds into one property (generating higher cash flow) or use leverage to spread those funds over multiple properties. There are many lifestyle considerations to think about when deciding how many properties to own, but from a tax perspective, using leverage to purchase multiple properties can be a much better tax shelter due to the multiple depreciation deductions. We created a graphic to illustrate the difference in tax savings!
