In this episode of the Tax Smart REI Podcast, Thomas, Justin, and Ryan break down the most common (and costly) mistakes we see from other CPAs and the massive tax savings real estate investors are missing because of them.

Tune in to learn:

- Why electing out of bonus depreciation without knowing it can cost you tens of thousands
- How improperly classifying repairs vs. improvements could trigger an audit or shrink your deductions
- The overlooked grouping strategy that saved one client $150K+ in a single year
- What really happens when CPAs misuse the Augusta Rule (and how to do it right)
- How a "medical tax specialist" cost a client over $100K in phantom tax savings—and exposed them to penalties

If you’re working with a CPA who doesn’t specialize in real estate, this episode might just save you from years of missed opportunities or worse, an audit.
