Mobile Homes & Taxes: Bourbon, Games, and a Better Tax Plan 🥃🧠

Tax season just ended—which makes right now the perfect time to have smart conversations with your CPA, not when you’re up against the clock next spring.

I’m headed to visit my own CPA tomorrow—yep, bourbon, board games, and talking numbers with Charles from Widget CPA (yes, that’s really what we do). But before we pour a glass, we’ll be diving into something that’s made a big difference in my business: how taxes and mobile homes mix.

Here’s one major thing most investors don’t realize: 👉 Mobile homes are depreciated over 5 years—not 27.5 years like traditional real estate.
That means you can potentially write off your investment quicker and reduce your tax burden much faster.

But that’s not all…

Quick bonus tip:
If you’re buying mobile homes with land, the land doesn’t depreciate—but the home itself does.
📉 If your CPA isn’t breaking out the value of the land and the mobile home separately, you’re likely missing out on tax savings.
➡️ If they don’t know how to do that—they need to talk to Charles.

We cover this and a whole lot more in my Ultimate Mobile Home Blueprint,which includes a full hour of real estate tax strategy with Charles. It’s one of the most commented-on parts of the course—because it answers the questions most CPAs can’t.

🎯 Don’t wait until the tax deadline pressure is on again—this is the time to get prepared.

 

P.S. I’m bringing a bottle of bourbon to our CPA meeting—because tax talk goes down smoother with a good pour. Got a favorite that drinks better than its price tag suggests? Tag us on social media with your best under-the-radar recs—I’m all ears. 🥃
