A permanent fix rather than just a bandaid. 

I should also note that the project would be ground up and the FHA loan would be a one-close construction to a permanent mortgage 

Non-tangible property includes buildings, land or other inherently permanent structures.I get a lot of questions on which group specific assets belong in, so I put together a list to help.Non-Tangible PropertyBuilding (27.5 or 39 Year Useful Life)Land (Non-Depreciable)Paved Parking Areas (15 Year useful life)Swimming Pools (15 Year useful life)Fences (15 year useful life)Bridges (15 year useful life)Exterior Landscaping (15 year useful life)Docks (15 year useful life)Sidewalks (15 year useful life)Tangible Personal PropertyMillwork or decorative trimCarpetAir Conditioning equipmentShelving, cabinets and display racksAccordion doors and partitionsWall coveringsInterior landscapingNeon or other signsDecorative and business specific activity light fixturesGenerators, machinery and kitchen equipmentWindow treatmentsWhat other questions do you have regarding cost segregation?

@Kevin Wood: For those temporary and permanent differences accounts, move them to Other Income and/or Other Expenses and see if you the reports works for you. 

This may be to deliberately prevent discovery of other electrical issues or prevent fire/injury.You will need some form of hard money or construction financing to purchase the property as is, and you will need to get the property occupant-ready to pass an appraisal before permanent financing is on the table.

Make sure you account for all of your interest load if youre using a Heloc for permanent financing as you suggest.

The regulation was ruled illegal and a permanent injunction was issued.  

I've reported it to MLS to have the listing permanently pulled as it's an erroneous/illegal listing. 

And as investors we should know this, but always anticipate higher costs and longer waits.EXAMPLE Breakdown of Costs:Plan Purchase: $1,500Permitting Fees: $2,500-7,500Site Preparation (grading, utilities, foundation): $20,000–$30,000ADUs require separate utility connections for water, electricity, and sewer but you can tap into existing utilities at the primary houseIn Raleigh you CANNOT split lots fee simple, so setting up completely separate utilities would not allow you to section off the ADU as of nowYour ADU must be on a permanent foundation (no wheels, no ability to move the structure)Construction (labor and materials): $100,000–$150,000Low-grade: $150–$180/sq ft averageMid-grade: $180–$220/sq ft averageHigh-end: $220–$250/sq ft averageLandscaping/Finishing Touches: $5,000Total Estimated Cost: $125,000–$200,000You could easily spend $200k+ with super end high finishes, custom designs, complicated sitework, adding a second story or more sqft, etc.

I got this e-mail too.
