Real Estate Investing Tax Strategies 2025: Maximize Returns with Syndications, Depreciation & More!

Ted Lanzaro is a Certified Public Accountant, real estate investor, author, and founder of Landmark CPA Group, LLC, who has spent more than 35 years helping real estate investors and business owners make better financial decisions through proactive tax planning.

Throughout his career, Ted has worked with thousands of investors and entrepreneurs, giving him a front-row view of the mistakes that quietly cost people money. Again and again, he has seen investors wait until tax season to think about tax, treat their CPA as someone who simply reports what has already happened, or make major buying, ownership, and exit decisions without considering the tax implications until the opportunity to plan has passed. His philosophy is simple: the most valuable tax decisions are usually made long before a return is filed.

As the author of Year-Round Tax Planning for Real Estate Investors, Ted is passionate about changing the way investors think about tax strategy. Rather than treating tax as an annual compliance exercise, he shows how it can become part of the wider decision-making process around cash flow, entity structure, acquisitions, short-term rentals, syndications, holding strategies, business growth, and eventual exits.

What makes Ted’s perspective particularly practical is that he understands real estate from both sides of the table.
