The best time is as soon as the property is placed in service or after a major renovation. For Coral Gables properties acquired in the current tax year, completing the study before your filing deadline maximizes the first-year benefit.
In Coral Gables, the most common candidates are single-family rentals, duplexes, triplexes, fourplexes, and small apartment buildings (1-50 units). Properties with site improvements like parking lots, landscaping, and fencing tend to yield the highest accelerated depreciation.

Land is non-depreciable, so higher land values reduce the depreciable basis. In high-land-value areas of Coral Gables, a $500,000 property might only have a $200,000 building basis. We use defensible methods to establish the land allocation for maximum benefit.
