This two hour course examines tax policy that affects real estate professionals and investors, including recent changes in individual tax rates and laws as well as the Medicare “Surtax.” Regardless of the size of your portfolio, understanding tax strategies can positively impact your returns and future plans. A comprehensive planning process enables you to define a practice action plan that links required changes into your annual business plan.

• State Cost Segregation for New Mexico Gross Receipts Tax Savings
• Energy and Sustainable Building Tax Incentives
