Listen "21. How to Factor Taxes into Syndication ROI: What Every Capital Raiser Should Know"
Episode Synopsis
In this episode of the Major League Real Estate Podcast, Nathan Sosa and Matt Hamilton explain one of the most overlooked areas of real estate syndication: how to accurately factor tax effects into ROI projections and communicate those expectations to investors.
Nathan and Matt walk through:
- Why syndicators should include tax impact in their ROI calculators and how it changes investor outcomes
- The role of bonus depreciation and cost segregation in driving year-one tax losses
- How leverage can dramatically amplify those tax losses (with back-of-the-napkin math examples)
- The major differences in tax treatment across asset classes like multifamily, industrial, and RV parks
- Why state tax exposure matters when investing outside your home state
- How to use cost segregation studies effectively and when to get them done
Nathan and Matt wrap up by emphasizing that taxes are the “cherry on top” of a strong deal, not the driver, but understanding them can make or break investor trust.
