Friends:
In 2024 Client incurred $25,000 in expenses for a rental property but had zero rental income, creating an unallowed income loss of $25,000. Unfortunately, she sold the property in 2024, so there is no future income against which to apply the unallowed income loss. I understand that there are ways that unallowed losses can be used. Can anyone help me understand those possibilities?
For what its worth, she had a $40,000 capital gain on the sale (though she had to bring money to the table because she had taken out equity).
Thanks.
Micah

Research "disallowed passive losses" and "sale of passive activity" before you hire a tax advisor.

She had $40,000 of income from the rental. Passive losses can be used for that amount.
If it was sold in a "fully taxable transaction", all passive losses from the property are usable.
