The “Big Beautiful Bill” Passed — Here’s What It Means for Commercial Property Owners

Wade Wilson, Senior Broker

GOLDEN, CO — July 24, 2025

I’m sure you saw that the “Big Beautiful Bill” passed. I wanted to quickly flag a few key changes from the new tax bill which could meaningfully affect the value of your building and your potential exit strategy.

Whether you’re planning an exit or just staying market-aware, here are 4 key updates worth your attention:

100% Bonus Depreciation is Back
Buyers can now fully expense certain improvements and equipment in the year they’re purchased. That’s a big deal — it makes your property more attractive to investors and owner-users alike, especially if it has recent upgrades.

1031 Exchanges Were Preserved
If you’re thinking about selling and rolling into another property, you can still defer capital gains taxes through a 1031 exchange. That keeps more money in your pocket and increases your options.

Interest Deductibility Secured
Full deductibility of real estate loan interest was maintained. That means more potential buyers can afford to finance your property, which supports pricing.

Pass-Through Deduction Made Permanent
If you hold the building in an LLC or similar structure, you can continue to take the 20% Qualified Business Income deduction — which reduces your effective tax rate.

What This Means for You
Many owners are reevaluating their exit strategies in light of these changes, and the timing could be more favorable than expected. Tanner and I can walk you through what your building might be worth in today’s market, and how the new tax landscape could support a successful sale.

Let’s talk about what your property could be worth and how to capitalize on these changes.
