I was previously in construction equipment rentals and did real estate on the side.

Let's look at your example of a roofer, assuming he owns the company.He has to pay for employees- they still get paid, even if they are not giving 100% effort.He has to pay his workers to go back for warranty work - effectively paying them to do the same job twice.He has to pay for equipment, even when it's not being used 100% of the time.- but the company he bought it from still gets paid.He has to pay for advertising, whether it works or not.- but the advertising company still gets paid.He has to pay for accounting services, payroll services, tax services, legal services, etc.- they all get paid whether he makes money or not.So, what's your point?

I am guessing that the vast majority of homes 10+ years old had some sort of water damage at some point, most had probably several.My own home is only a few years old and we had the washer spring a leak and a few years later the RO system in the kitchen started leaking into the cabinet.Seller disclosures are pretty useless in my opinion.

My suggestions:* Requiring code compliance and safety equipment is absolutely valid and should be part of the regulations* Requiring owners live within 15 miles is not necessary since poor hosts whether they're local or distant will violate the 3-5 warning system and earn a suspension.

Our tenant accidentally broke a kitchen cupboard door.

It seems a stretch to pay for the Rig with Section 179.I would have development equipment onboard and dedicate a portion of the space to developmentI could put the companies logo on the side as advertisementGiven this, what tax strategies are actually practical?

My park is in Oklahoma, and I am wanting to start with metering the water individually any advice about best metering equipment for the money would be appreciated. 

The tax advantages of buying/holding gas stations are pretty great.Many of the components of gas stations including pumps, tanks, external parking areas, and other equipment are classified as either 5 or 15 year property so you can bonus depreciate a lot of it (minus the land value) and get significant deductions in year 1.With the 2025 bonus depreciation rate at 40%, a $1 million gas station acquisition could still lead to $100K+ in year 1 deductions depending on the specifics of your deal.

Gutted the kitchen and dining/living room area.

Being the military, it had that definite institutional overtone to it, but the basic premise was the same.I recently toured a new senior's complex in which on end - for those who were still relatively self sufficient - had individual units (bedroom, sitting room / kitchenette ... effectively a bachelor apartment but without a full kitchen) clustered together in groups of 4 with their own common room / kitchen and courtyard.On the other side of the complex were units for those who required more assisted living.
