DepreciateRight
For landlords who’d rather not guess

The invoice already arrived.
The tax answer shouldn’t take a season.

DepreciateRight walks you through the exact IRS Betterment, Adaptation, and Restoration test on every repair invoice you get. In under a minute, you know whether it’s a same-year deduction or a multi-year depreciation entry, and roughly what it’s worth at your tax rate.

Built with a practicing CPA. When the rules don’t give a clean answer, we flag it for CPA review instead of pretending to know.

First property free. Spreadsheets optional. Guessing isn’t.

The moment that decides thousands. Now with an actual answer.

How it works

Three steps. One decision each.

01
Enter the invoice

Vendor, date, amount, what the work was. Thirty seconds. No receipts to photograph, no OCR guessing.

02
Answer the BAR Test

Five or six plain-English questions cover the safe harbors and the Betterment, Adaptation, Restoration test. Every answer is a real IRS rule, not a rule of thumb.

03
Get the verdict, in dollars

Deductible repair or capitalized improvement, and what it’s worth at your marginal rate. Capitalized items land in a component ledger you can audit years later at sale.

Guessing is also a tax strategy.
Just an expensive one.

Every repair invoice you misclassify is either a deduction you paid for and didn’t take, or a capitalization you skipped that comes back at sale. DepreciateRight turns each one into a real answer, in real dollars, in the minute you get the invoice.
