Tax Reform Promoted comprehensive approach to tax reform that avoids enacting reform for C corporations at the expense of flow-through entities or otherwise disadvantaging multifamily real estate relative to other asset classes. Support maintaining current law regarding: (1) the tax treatment of carried interest; (2) the full deductibility of business interest; (3) the Low-Income Housing Tax Credit (while also increasing program resources) and tax-exempt private activity housing bonds; (4) the permanent estate tax rules enacted in January 2013; (5) Section 1031 like-kind exchanges; (6) the 27.5-year depreciation period for multifamily buildings; (7) depreciation recapture; and (8) the deductibility of state and local real estate taxes. We oppose proposals increasing taxes on capital gains.

The policy does not free a tax payer from any obligations to pay taxes, but merely aligns the payments with when the property is sold. H.R. 2029 Consolidated Appropriations Act, Protecting Americans from Tax Hixes Act/S.915/H.R.2128 Real Estate Investment and Jobs Act of 2015: BOMA supports legislation to amend the Internal revenue Code of 1986 to exempt certain stock of real estate investment trusts from tax on foreign investments in United States property interests and increasing the percentage of ownership stake in a REIT a foreign investor may have before triggering the tax, from five to ten percent. BOMA supports comprehensive tax reform policies that do not penalize capital investment in commercial real estate, do not discriminate against real estate as an investment class, do not retroactively tax embedded invests, revise depreciation schedules to more closely reflect market reality for building components, treat leasehold improvements fairly as a permanent policy- allows depreciation over no longer than a 15-year period, maintain a low tax rate on capital gains and provide a long terms certainly and stability for the economic health and growth of the real estate industry. S.1686/H.R.2889 Carried Interest Fairness Act of 2015: BOMA opposes this legislation that would amend the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 to change the tax treatment of personal service income earned in pass-thru entities. As real estate is a risk-driven investment, BOMA supports the current tax treatment of carried interest, the gains of a RE general partner, to be taxed at the capital gains rate.

Tax Reform Promoted comprehensive approach to tax reform that avoids enacting reform for C corporations at the expense of flow-through entities or otherwise disadvantaging multifamily real estate relative to other asset classes. Support maintaining current law regarding: (1) the tax treatment of carried interest; (2) the full deductibility of business interest; (3) the Low-Income Housing Tax Credit (while also increasing program resources) and tax-exempt private activity housing bonds; (4) the permanent estate tax rules enacted in January 2013; (5) Section 1031 like-kind exchanges; (6) the 27.5-year depreciation period for multifamily buildings; (7) depreciation recapture; and (8) the deductibility of state and local real estate taxes. We oppose proposals increasing taxes on capital gains. Finally, we favor: (1) repealing or reforming FIRPTA rules to incent foreign investment in U.S. real estate; and (2) expanding incentives for energy efficiency in commercial buildings (i.e., Internal Revenue Code Section 179D).
