    Rental to Corp depreciable to stockholder personally?

    Am I right, that when a more that 50% stockholder leases a building to a C Corp, that stockholder cannont depreciate that property on his personal Sced E to offset the income? What about insurance?

    Help! I'm really confused on this one. Looking at TB makes me think it's depreciable to the stockholder but pub 946 makes me think not???????

      No you are not right. A fair-market-value lease arrangement between a shareholder and a C corporation is handled just like any other rental.

        Thanks Maribeth, that makes more sense, but then when has the IRS been logical? Agreement anyone?

          Insurance on the building is an expense to the shareholder as well right? Can the lease specify the corp having the building insurance? (really her and family)

              The tenant needs to have insurance for its possessions and to protect itself incase of fire, flood, theft, etc.

              The landlord needs to have insurance to cover the loss of the property.
