I've got a long path ahead myself but nothing sounds more interesting to me than helping someone like yourself chart a path towards your dreams and financial victories. 

Capital Expenditures go under the Lease Hold improvements in your chart of accounts, according to where my accountant says put it. 

We're really splitting hairs here.

Examples: modeling, escorts, sales of hair products.It should not be deductible to just maintain professional appearance, as in traditional sales, executive jobs, customer service etc.

Is there a simple Property Managers book that has a chart with scheduled maintenance etc ?

Purchased in '14 for a hair over $200K, put $20K into finishing basement, appraised for $230K in '15 and should now appraise for $260K+ based upon recent activity in the neighborhood. 

We just printed off the Freddie Mac Loan-Level Price Adjustments chart and sent it to our lender.  

I have to say though our customer service departments in our major metros here are truly unbelievable help to the hair on fire investors.And of course we prepped our own deeds got with the seller to notarize and ran them to the courthouse to record them.. then we would courier the reinstatement cashiers check to the foreclosure trustee ( in those days based mostly in Seattle)  we had the gal at the law office on speed dial.. its was pretty exciting really.

Just note, that not all guests like pets, so remnants of pets in homes (pee stains, smells, pet hair etc) can hurt reviews.

My husband and I are both self employed (I am a hair stylist) and were always told to write off write off write off, so our tax returns bite us in the *** when it comes to financing.
