More than willing to have a civil private conversation where I think I can explain exactly why rent control (which is really only used for political rhetoric) is a bad idea as is almost all government attempts to "control" what landlords do (including the eviction moratorium)..

I think the deal has to be so bad for an investor to ask for this. you as an investor need to find an amazing deal for this conversation to never arise..good luck

Hey Dane, your depreciable basis in the property is the lower of your cost, including improvements, and fair market value on the date of conversion to rental use.

Either way, it's a hard position to be in as a landlord, and I wish you all the best in the world in having the hard conversations. 

I see this conversation interesting and inviting me to add some of my thoughts being an Investor and Realtor.

I would suggest having a conversation with your agent on what the expectations are for the near future.  

@Frank Patalano - Good conversation starter, so let me give you my vote!

I had a conversation with my friend, a real estate agent, a few months ago that really stuck with me.

Over my career-span I have completed about 84 conversion project's, turning SFH into MFH. 

The first step is ALWAYS trying to have a conversation to understand their situation.
