My wife and I live in a rented apartment in CA and own a home in AZ that we have rented out. Last year our losses on the AZ property (Interest + prop. taxes + repairs + depreciation – rentalincome) was 14K (reported in schedule E and form 6198). Now since our total W2 wages in CA are 150K we can’t deduct the 14K from our adjusted gross income. Question is can this no. be carried forward each year (as losses) and later when we sell the rental investment property can the sum of all these yearly losses be subtracted from the profit we make by selling the rental property?

Also, someone suggested that the smarter thing to do would be to form an LLC and start getting a tax-break from the losses we are making every year. Is that true?

I am going to buy a rental property for investment (a Condo, in the range of $150,000 to $250,000). I am not familiar with San Jose area. Could any one tell me what are the best neighborhoods and/or which neighborhoods should I avoid in San Jose?
