Answer and Explanation:
The Residential properties are depreciated over 27.5 years
Then:
The total amount of depreciation is $15,635. We assume that the property is sold in 2015.
Therefore, depreciation will be allowed only for 5 years such that the annual depreciation will be $3127 for 5 years.
He saves $781.75 annually (0.25*$3127).
If he holds the property for 5 years and then sells it, his 5 years' worth of depreciation will have saved him $3908.75 and it a $10,000 gain taxed at a maximum of 15%
$10,000 gain taxed at a maximum of 25% (or 33% if the gain pushes the taxpayer into a higher tax bracket).
$10,000 gain taxed at a maximum of 25%

Explanation:
The real interest rate is the nominal interest rate adjusted for inflation.
If the nominal interest rate was made with inflation in mind and this inflation is less than anticipated, the real rate will be higher not lower than expected.
For instance: Assume the nominal rate is 8% and the two parties assumed inflation would be 4%. Real rate would be:
= 8 - 4 = 4%
If inflation is instead 2%, real rate would be:
= 8 - 2 = 6%
Real rate would be higher than anticipated.
