When I used to be a tenant, my landlord had it in the lease that at the end of the lease for move out, the tenant has to hire a professional to clean the gutter, clean the fireplace, clean the carpet, etc.

The rest of the land isn’t really easy to build on so It is virtually worthless to you.Let's say you paid $5MM for the facility based on NOI and the land came with it, virtually free.So you decide to get the property appraised for development value and donate it to a land conservatory.The appraiser runs some comps on other land recently purchased to get you a value.They come back and tell you the current development value of that land is $50,000 an acre. $50,000 times 15 acres equals $750,000.You give that $750k development right to an agency, and It is treated as if you gave $750k to the Red Cross.It's a huge deduction.Depending on your tax bracket, that tax deduction could be worth several hundred thousand dollars to you.It's a pretty big deal.

Hire a contractor to repair.

I hired roichamps dot com to do cold calling for me.

However, hiring a CPA will not save you any money, in other words will not reduce your taxes. 

How have you found quality contractors that you continue to hire?

I've leased out SFR but not commercial and plan to hire a broker to assist as well. 

GC's are always looking for extra help so it shouldn't be hard to find one who will hire you.

The new guys we hired were not up to par so we thought it couldn't hurt to try this. 

I'm trying to decide if hiring a debt settlement attorney is the right move for me.
