Is there a limitation on the loss carryforward of passive losses?

AnswerLosses from passive activities-activities in which the taxpayer doesn't materially participate, and most rental activities-may only be used to offset passive activity income (which doesn't include portfolio income); thus they can't be used to offset income from, for example, compensation, interest or dividends. Any losses that are unused in a tax year because of this rule are carried forward to the following year(s) until used, or until taxpayer disposes of the interest in the activity (or substantially all of the activity) in a taxable transaction. Passive activity credits may be used only to offset tax on income from passive activities, with a carryover of any unused credits. However, individuals who actively participate in rental real estate activities may use up to $25,000 of losses from those activities to offset nonpassive income; and those activities are not automatically passive for real estate professionals. However, the 25K losses start to phase out for a married filing jointly taxpayers with AGI of $100k and are gone completely at $150K AGI...


Can unallowed passive losses from a rental property for prior years be taken in a year the property is no longer a rental?

Not when you do not have the passive income from what was the rental property at one time in the past. The taxpayer must dispose of his entire interest in an activity in order to trigger the recognition of loss. If he disposes of less than his entire interest, then the issue of ultimate economic gain or loss on his investment in the activity remains unresolved.


Can rental income losses be considered a passive loss when selling the property?

Unless you have qualified and elected to be treated as a real estate professional for income tax purposes, rental losses are, by definition, passive activity losses. These losses are subject to various limitations, so some or all may be suspended in any given tax year. At the time of complete disposition of the rental property, the taxpayer may take any suspended losses against his ordinary income for that year. See IRS Publication 925, Passive Activity and At-Risk Rules, and Publication 527, Residential Rental Property, for further information.
