If you manage homes built before 1978, there's a key regulation to be aware of: the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) requires property managers and Landlords Nationwide to be certified in lead-based paint handling.

@Sean ConroyThe cost of building is not going to go down, unless you're looking at the debt component.

Assets identified in this study include:Bathroom Fixtures: Bathtubs, vanities, showers and toiletsStructural Components: Drywall, wood framing and interior partitionsBuilding systems: water heater, electrical distribution, HVAC, plumbingInterior Construction: Wood flooring, stairs, ceramic tileSmoke detectorsThis engineering-based cost segregation study included the following methodology:Physical Inspection through a site visitDocumentation review including architectural plans, accounting records and construction documentsA cost analysis which utilizes engineering principles in order to allocate costs to their applicable asset classificationsCalculation of the depreciation schedule using MACRSAs a reminder, bonus depreciation started to phase out in 2023.

The sophisticated money is not buying in stagnant markets with poor fundamentals because they can achieve the 1% rule, can complete a BRRRR or because of more favorable landlord tenant laws exist just to highlight what’s rarely part of their acquisition criteria which is a stark contrast to the mindset of most within the BiggerPockets community.Since your focus is specifically on landlord tenant law component I’ll add those who follow the law, properly maintain their property, respond timely to tenant requests, use well drafted and fair leases and don’t unreasonably withhold deposits  find themselves in far less tenant controversies.

The EPA has published new lead paint standards. https://www.healthday.com/health-news/environmental-health/e...All five of my rentals were built well before the end of the lead paint era.

Hey @Marc Shin, so I am a fan of separate components usually, but in this case an all in one is the better choice.We have Ziply DSL at only 12mb as that is the max for our rural lake house and it has been no issues.

A 1031 exchanged property can include 1245 components that are considered part of the "real property" for 1031 purposes if they're affixed to the building (and also up to 15% of the value can be personal property under an IRS rule, such as appliances).

It is probably the most critical component of investing in multifamily.
