I take standard deductions. All business expenses must be expensed per property .. and I have more than a few. The only thing that I would take is my personal home property tax and a few thousand to charity(s) if I itemized. Filing jointly and having it popped to twenty-four large (12x2), standard deduction would help me. I need all of the help that I can get. In the past six or seven years, on my rental properties, the property taxes have increased over seventeen thousand dollars (that's just the increase) ... and the rents are basically the same as back then.

I don't judge an administration's tax policies on what they do to the poor, the rich, or the in-between. Rather, I only base said proposals of what they do to/for me.
