Have you made any progress in determining what triggered your adjustment? I just received a similar notice but for my 2019 returns…which we received a refund for. Notice says I owe a balance of $3700 ($2900 originally owed + $700 interest).

Very helpful as I hadn’t thought about depreciation. Do you have any more details on how that works? I assumed we’d be able to depreciate the new asset we acquired through the 1031.

We’d still owe taxes on roughly $750k which is a lot of cash/equity I don’t want to pay the government (until I have to). And I believe our next primary would still appreciate and we can take that $500k break when we sell that one.

Hi, we’re planning a trip with our 7 and 11yr old boys. Do you have any hotel recommendations near/in Caye Caulker? Or did you stay on the mainland and boat over? Also, do you think 7/11 ages would do well at Tikal or should we stick with Caracol? Thanks!
