Just to clarify - Hyde Park and Oakley (depending on location) are not B/C class - if you are looking for B/C class best place to look are the other area's and potentially even the West Side of Cincinnati.

@Angelo Cortez the IRS does recognize MTR as a classification - only STR and LTR. 

That is a tax code classification.

You are probably smart enough that you do not need it, but I recommend to everyone to take a live prep class if they can, or take one online thru someplace like CE Shop.   

Basically, an Engineering Cost Segregation takes everything that is renovated, updated, or done to each property for the past 15 years, and puts each and every item into the proper classes- for example- if you took basic, straight-line depreciation for carpet, for example- carpeting that you put into a rental home- it doesn't LAST 27 1/2 or 29 years- it lasts maybe five- so that is put into it's OWN classification area, using exact guidelines from the IRS for each and every item.

I am surrounded by low and moderate density housing throughout the area despite all the lots displaying the same R-2-N classification on the City Planners website.

NY is tough on Workers Comp. for certain contracting classifications. 

I honestly believe I get better outcomes for myself on average and that it leads to a better landlord/tenant relationship and better overall experiences for both sides.I also don't believe anything I do leaves me open to being accused of any type of bias against any protected class if that is what you are implying could happen. 

For the most part you are correct that the new depreciation may offset some or all of the gain from your sale, but it may or may not cover all of it, and depending on your tax classification, it may not work.

Common classifications include right of possession, control, exclusion, enjoyment, and disposition.Leases have possession, some control, some exclusion, and some enjoyment.
