Depreciation

Good morning, Community, 

I have a new client with a single rental home that he has in the past claimed depreciation on a Kubota tractor as he uses it primarily for snow/leaf removal for the rental. Does anyone have a good article on best practices for depreciation involving a rental? 

Interestingly, he is in the process of selling said rental, i.e. a mobile home,  for a 100k profit margin from original purchase price. Crazy times in which we live! 

Have a great day, Dawn

You would depreciate it as any other piece of equipment.  But unless he is dealing with a 3 mile long driveway and 40 acres of lawn, I would find it hard to believe it is primarily for the rental.  Folks tend to like to buy themselves toys to play with and then try and dream up a way to write off the cost of the toys.
