However with MACRS, the earlier years are still more heavily weighted than the later years. 

They are worth their weight in gold.They actually specialize in smaller multi family in the Lehigh Valley so their business is built around the model.

You have more weight and you are a more important client.

I can also count on 1 hand the number of tiny home designs I've seen that don't look like repurposed tough sheds and/or have awkward dimensions.

Try to take a long-term view—it usually helps remove the emotional weight and allows you to think more clearly about the problem.

Not meant for doom and gloom but meant to shed light on our profession.

The 8 to 10% is worth its weight in gold. 

I lived in Toronto for a couple of years, and the real estate there is quite funky.Making the trip and meeting people in person will be worth its weight in gold...GREAT CALL on that.We work solely in Chicago as a general contractor...for now. 

It needs a lot of work, but my main thing I need help with is this old shed behind the property.

My first metric of weight I consider is CAP-X.
