If it’s installed we’ll, you should easily get 15-20 years out of an asphalt shingles roof.

And Land improvements, landscaping, pavement, fencing, etc. can be depreciated over a 15-year period

The house is a little shy of 1,000 sq. ft. and I'd be putting your standard asphalt shingles on.

Another item that you really shouldn't do in the winter is the roofing, especially asphalt tiles. 

Then it become a matter of either finding seller financing at acceptable terms or pounding the pavement and finding the right lender for your needs. 

Absolutely, and they are unique to me.If there was a property that just had a new slate roof (not just throwing another layer of asphalt shingles on a roof) two years ago it would have disproportionate value to me.

Phase 2 infrastructure is in place with minimal site work needed to complete and asphalt paving.There are currently 2 presales and 1 confirmation to purchase once activity resumes.

Timing is interesting as we were just getting quotes for fixing and coating the asphalt driveway, and I thought it was originally a shared driveway, but it turns out I own it.

Apparently it violates the Clearwater city code and they say the only materials I can use are concrete, asphalt, pavers, or turfblock.

I went with asphalt but if I could do it again would have done concrete.
