I have never been shy of facing challenges and I truly believe knowledge is power (something my grandfather taught me at a young age)I really want to learn everything there is to learn about realestate and am driven and hungry.Thanks in advance for any suggestions or recommendations.

I own one facility and it has been quite a challenge so far.

Our average construction time is about 8 months after permit is issued and we are always improving.

However, in my experience, those who rely exclusively on this strategy can face significant challenges.

I love the town, but I guess that my point is that it has substantial challenges as a full time local.

But I would urge planners to consider that the Sec 263 regs they rely upon for the justification for not expensing remodeling costs is actually an exclusion section which prohibits deductions under pspecified circumstances that being that the amount was: "paid out for new buildings or for permanent improvements or betterments made to increase the value of any property or estate."

Challenges?
