COMMERCIAL REAL ESTATE: A CLEAR WINNER FROM TAX REFORM

March 15, 2018

The Tax  Cuts and  Jobs Act  (TCJA)  of  2017,  the most  significant revision  to  the U.S.  tax code  since  1986,  reduced  the headline  corporate tax rate from 35% to 21%. Businesses have already responded to the fiscal stimulus, which was designed to make the country more competitive within the global marketplace. Apple recently announced a plan to invest $350 billion in the U.S. over five years that includes creating 20,000 jobs and building a new corporate campus. However, corporations are not the primary beneficiary of tax reform.  The  average  per  household  tax  savings  is  estimated  to  exceed  $1,600  in  2018  alone.  In terms of  cumulative savings, households could see a net benefit three times greater than that of employers over 10 years.
