You will still get a delivery charge but no usage charge.And it is no problem to sell a rental with a tenant.

A dishwasher would almost certainly be expensed for both books and tax if you make a de minimis safe harbor election for the tax year in question.If you do not make a DMSH election and the cost of the property is more than $200 (cost includes sales tax, delivery, installation and testing), it would generally be capitalized and depreciated. 

The issue is if you allow delivery with you absent (if they will do that) you are accepting what they sent.

There are a lot of things I don’t know so any tips would be very helpful.My dad had expressed some interest and wants to help me but his properties are currently under a mortgage.

It is always a pleasure to welcome someone like you and hear the excitement of getting started being expressed.

Don't forget about appliance lead time and delivery/install challenges.

They gave sweet promises, but their delivery was poor.

I also expressed interest in the 3 bed 2 bath and the Childhood home 4 bed 2 bath, but since the 5 plex is commercial I don't think I can qualify for all 3.

Concrete delivery was 3 day wait .

This is one of many threads going on right now expressing everybody's dislike for the new forum layouts and loss of user ability.
