Opened up the concept, added marble kitchen and bathrooms.

If as a result of your negligence, a tenant injured themselves so severely and at such a high cost for medical expenses, that the tenant's health insurance company's claim against your property policy, and deemed it monetarily worth their while to bring suit against your homeowners policy holder, I would say you have a whole slew of more pressing problems like overcoming the urge to complete your "violent art gallery show" where in you hang running chainsaws from the ceiling of other people's homes in an aesthetically pleasing pattern.  

One I worked one 20 years ago had this special skirting that had a siding pattern I had never seen before.....EVER.

Similar pattern for the next few months. 

Fewer trips to grocery stores, along with smaller receipts per visit, are typical patterns during a recession.

Found another one - this is definitely a pattern.

Unfortunately the postwar development patterns require a lot of driving to live in those neighborhoods.

If you flip 5 properties and keep 5 properties as rentals in a given year, the 5 flipped properties will get taxed as business income (and be subjected to SET) and the 5 rentals will be classified as capital assets and will get taxed as such.That said, I believe that if there are properties where the IRS can't really determine if they are intended to be flips or rentals (intent does matter in this case), then the IRS can look at previous patterns by the taxpayer and make a general classification of "Dealer" to determine that all properties fit that criteria.But, if you segregate your properties properly (flips from one or more business entities and rentals from other business entities), you should be able to treat some properties as inventory (dealing) and some as rentals (capital assets).I'm not a tax professional, but that's how I understand it.

He disagreed completely citing a story of some tenants that used an iron to burn marks in his carpets in every room and poured cement down his drainsas well as took a hammer to all the tile in the bathroomsok horror tenants aside/my argument to putting niceties in the rental is to keep the rental rented,with the housing market the way it is there are a lot of rentals to chooose from what makes yours special I am not saying buy marble counter tops but maybe corian perhaps go to ikea and get a floating vanity instead of a pre purchased tub surround tile with 12x12 make your bathrooms look like a 4 star hotel or at least a three star.why?

Many markets don't support wild swings in property values and the "appreciation" that goes with this valuation pattern.
