My sole member LLC closed a deal on a rental property on 12/20/23. When filing my tax return, I stupidly forgot to include any of the expenses that occurred during settlement, such as the prorated taxes (about $1950), settlement charges (about $5400), etc. I did not make any mortgage payments in 2023, therefore there was no mortgage interest to deduct. The LLC received a very small amount of income during the transfer of ownership, less than $300.
If I want to claim those deductions, I have to file an amended return for 2023, correct? Just because they occurred at the very end of the year doesn't mean I can tack them onto 2024? I'm pretty sure I know the answer to this but just trying to get an experts perspective.
Also, can I claim depreciation on the property even though I only owned it for 10 days out of the year?
Lastly, would these kinds of deductions (totaling roughly $7350) make much of a dent in an already filed federal return with an AGI of $65,000 that it would justify the time and expense of amending my 2023 return?
