Deduct This: Rent to Riches

ABOUT THIS MASTERCLASS

Inside this masterclass, you’ll learn how to:

Use depreciation and improvements strategically to reduce taxable income
Tell the difference between a repair and an improvement (and why the IRS cares)
Keep audit-ready records for properties, tenants, travel, and repairs
Avoid common real estate tax mistakes that cost investors thousands
See when it might make sense to bring in entities (LLC/S corp) as part of your strategycy and generational wealth inside your own family

Because the truth is:

Real estate isn’t just about doors and deals, it’s about strategy. And when you understand the tax side, your rentals can actually take you from rent…to riches.

MEET YOUR INSTRUCTOR – KYM BRAKE

Hi, I’m Kym Brake — Enrolled Agent, tax law LLM, and founder of OC Tax Brake.

I’ve been helping business owners reduce their taxes for over 20 years, but my journey didn’t start in a boardroom. It started in a hospital room, raising my disabled daughter as a single mom.

I learned the tax code inside and out because I had to. And today, my strategies don’t just save families money, they change their futures.

WHAT YOU’LL LEARN INSIDE

How Rental Income Is Really Taxed
What You Can (and Can’t) Deduct for Rentals
Using Depreciation, Repairs & Improvements Strategically
Keeping Audit-Ready Books & Records
Structuring Your Rentals Like a Real Business
Avoiding Common Real Estate Tax Mistakes
Knowing When to Bring In LLCs or S Corps

This isn’t just tax planning. It’s wealth building.

WHO THIS IS FOR

(AND NOT FOR)

🚫 Not for you if:

People without any form of business activity
Those looking for loopholes or tax evasion tactics
Individuals seeking personalized tax advice or CPA services
People who are unwilling to track or document their activities

✅ Perfect for you if:

Renters and homeowners who want to legally turn their living space into tax deductions
Entrepreneurs, small business owners, and side-hustlers
People who want clear, step-by-step guidance
Anyone ready to stop overpaying in taxes

WHY THIS STRATEGY WORKS

Because the IRS already allows it. These deductions exist in the tax code—you just need to know how to apply them correctly to your home, rental space, or property.

Because you’re already paying for the space. When you use your home or rental property for legitimate business purposes, part of those expenses can become tax write-offs instead of out-of-pocket costs.

Because documentation turns your living space into a deductible asset. With the right records and simple systems, your home can legally reduce your tax bill year after year.

The tax code already supports it
Your home is a major expense
Simple documentation transforms ordinary living space into deductible business space

Rent to Riches helps you keep more cash today and turn your home or rental space into real, compounding wealth.

THE BIG PICTURE

Your home isn’t just an expense—it’s your next wealth strategy.

You’re already paying for your home—this strategy shows you how to turn that expense into a powerful tax-saving tool.
When used correctly, your living space becomes a business asset, allowing you to legally deduct rent, utilities, and home expenses you’re already covering.
You free up more cash today, which can be reinvested into your business, your savings, or your lifestyle.
You build long-term financial stability by using IRS-approved strategies that turn everyday living costs into wealth-building opportunities.

“The moment you learn the rules, your biggest expense becomes your biggest advantage.” – Kym Brake

FAQ

Is this legal?

Yes, when tied to a bona fide business purpose and properly documented. You’ll learn exactly how.

Will this trigger an audit?

Sloppy records do. This class shows how to prevent red flags and build an audit-ready file.

Can I deduct all my clothes?

No. You’ll learn exclusive-use rules and media-closet systems that pass scrutiny.

I’m not ultra-luxury.

It’s about your market. A Newport realtor ≠ a Compton realtor. We help you define “ordinary & necessary” for you.

I’m busy. Is this practical?

Yes, checklists, templates, SOPs. Implement in one afternoon.

FAQ

Do I need to own a property to benefit from this course?

No. Whether you’re renting, own a home, or plan to invest in real estate, the course teaches strategies you can use right away to reduce taxes and build wealth.

Is real estate investing risky?

All investing carries some risk, but real estate is historically one of the most stable and predictable wealth-building vehicles. This course teaches you how to evaluate deals, reduce risk, and make smart decisions.

Can I really save money on taxes with real estate?

Absolutely. Real estate offers some of the most powerful tax benefits available—depreciation, expense deductions, travel, interest write-offs, and more. You’ll learn how to use them legally and strategically.

Will this course help if I already own rental properties?

Yes. You’ll learn how to optimize your tax strategy, maximize cash flow, create better systems, and uncover deductions you may be overlooking.

Do I need an LLC to invest in real estate or take deductions?

No. You can start investing and receive tax benefits as an individual. An LLC can offer liability protection and organizational advantages, but it’s not required to begin building wealth through real estate.
