F/f valuation is the valuation that is going to matter most.  

Strategic timing matters, especially with multi-state portfolios.Real Example:Investment property sale in 2019Federal noticed unreported gainTwo states involvedTimed response to fall after state deadlinesResult: Only federal adjustment appliedInvestors: What's been your experience handling tax notices across multiple states?

The first is that there's no consensus between tax professionals, and the second is that you will not like my personal interpretation.My interpretation is:Until the property is "placed in service" - everything goes into basis.Illustration.You buy a property July 1st.You finish rehab November 1st and put the property on the market.Your tenant moves in January 15th.The property was placed in service November 1st, and it does not matter that the tenant did not move in until the next year.Everything paid between July 1st and November 1st, including interest and utilities, goes into basis.

If not, it's just a matter of waiting for the lender to start lending in that area again.
