A consistent, own time tenant is a valuable thing and worth accommodating most of the time and a goof landlord or property management firm knows how to walk that line.

One can walk into ANY Home Depot or Lowes and find an assortment of 2 prong outlets. 

I planning to have backyard installed in new construction SFH.
I read this cannot be added to the cost basis of the rental property and be depreciated by 27.5 years since it is not an improvement to the property.
Bu...

I did a complete walk through and review of the financials of the 18 units in 4 separate buildings.

Never in a million years would I see that happening when you walk into your lender and say, "Hi, I've managed 1 property in my life, I would like to buy 1392 please."  

I liked it and agreed to help covering the BRRRR strategy, help people analyze a deal, walk a job, help them deal with construction issues etc. 

This is a hoarding situation in and on the whole property where neighbors have complained for years with police out on a regular basis and drug use that now the property finally got condemned and they will most likely just walk away from the property and leave it( you would have to see what is outside of the house to believe it).

Walk away.  

Short walk to lake wallenpaupack. 1.5 acres, 3bed 1.5bath, ductless a/c, basement garage for storage.

That reminded me of the other thing I do when the appraiser walks through the property.
