For land or buildings, improvements (also known as capital improvements) are the costs of permanently upgrading a single family rental investment property rather than maintaining or repairing it. Instead of being able to taking an expense deduction for the cost of improvements in the year paid, an investor adds the cost of the improvements to the basis of the property.

If after learning a bit more about Capital Improvements you are curious to see how your current Investment Portfolio would benefit from performing a 1031, then I recommend signing up to receive a FREE 1031 Sizing from Conatus.

This sizing gives you info about the value of replacement properties you need to purchase and the amount of related debt on this purchase to fully defer your capital gains associated tax liability.

As an added benefit you will receive a comparison of your current income vs potential replacement property income that includes an assessment of income tax benefit between the
two.

The Conatus 1031 Sizing is your blueprint for how to maximize cash flow from trading your equity for a multiple on income.
