The answer I got was they have internal protocols they follow, and when it's time for them to sell at auction, they sell it at auction, not before.

Again having my guys doing the rehab.Following, building a steady portfolio of flip and sell and buy and hold properties id like to start moving in to the international market, obviously this area will take years to get to but is an end goal of my company.I do greatly understand by putting myself into the business side of this and throwing myself into the renovation side of it, i do fully understand the work load I will put my self under, however from all I have read and learned from other people in the industry one of their biggest issues is the contractors.

Landing AMZN is a big deal, the 'new' part, and may (perception) trigger new infusion of intrastate or international capital.

These deals are in the Metro Charlotte area, and have value add components as well to force appreciation.

If they're not, it's a long and involved (and expensive) process.Most often, the larger parcels will be developed into graded lots by one of the regional development companies, then sold to regional builders to construct and sell the finished homes (and potential commercial components).Smaller developers (like myself) can take on the smaller parcels (say, 10's of acres) that are too small for the regional companies to touch - there's an opportunity for your client to partner there and capture more of the profit stack if s/he's interested.Regardless, there's plenty of brokers who work in the space and broker between land owners and developers for owners who aren't familiar with the business. 

@Paul Yousef The benefit of cost seg is dependent on the amount of '5-year' property (i.e. non-structural components in the building) that can be identified, 'segregated', and accelerated.

The amounts paid for the printers meet the requirements for the de minimis safe harbor.For the tangible property capitalization rules, the UOP for assets generally consists of all the components that are functionally interdependent. 

Keep in mind that BIG component is your depreciation - which could easily be the biggest "expense" for your rental.

@Nick KatsikisThe source is the Temporary Regs to Section 469 of the Internal Revenue Code.

I even hired a business intern this past summer to help me.
