Reduce income by itemized deduction before I apply my real estate losses
Once I determine my income for the year (Interest, Dividends), I add my real estate losses to it. This gets me to a negative number. This leaves my itemized deduction as a useless asset.
So for example :
Interest and Dividends: 10,000
Real Estate gains (losses): -35,000
Adjusted gross income = -25,000.
Now my itemized deduction of 45,000 is useless to me. Part of that 45,000 is deductible points paid on my loan to acquire my investment property.
- How can I make use of that itemized deduction or am I out of luck?
- How can I move those points paid elsewhere so I can use it to increase my real estate losses?That's if I'm allowed to do so.
- Where can I find my real estate losses (25,000) carried forward to the next year?
Thanks!!!
