Sold rental property, held for 10 years. During that time, install a new well system, for the old well went dry. Under what classification asset will I depreciate the well
You'll need to sign in or create an account to connect with an expert.
The IRS Publication 946 How To Depreciate Property includes the Table of Class Lives and Recovery Periods found here on page 97.
As a component of residential rental property, I would select Rental Real Estate Property and Land Improvements.
the well would have been a land improvement and should have been deprecated starting with the date it was placed intp service. Without filing form 3115 you can't catch up on the depreciation yo didn't take all at once. Having sold the property you must recapture the depreciation that was omitted. I strongly recommend consulting with a tax pro so things can be fixed.
