Estate Planning -- Investing in Rental Real Estate as a Side Businesscrinal2

Rental income avoids personal holding company treatment if it makes up 50% of income and dividends paid are under 10% of gross income. Depreciation deductions reduce taxable income over 27.5-39 years. Ultimately dividends and liquidation before sale reduce the tax shelter benefits of the corporate structure.
