For instance, if you are buying a commercial building, it may be more beneficial to work with a community bank.

For instance, foreign real estate depreciation is generally spread over 40 years, which differs from the faster schedules used in the U.S., and the ability to offset W-2 income may have limitations due to the passive activity loss rules.

For instance if it's $5000 in furniture and you are netting $500 a month then it's 10 months before your buyer sees any actual income.

For instance, it is impermissible for a lease to mandate tenants to cover the landlord's attorney’s fees in legal proceedings.

I understand there are change orders that happen and that can be handled on a per instance basis.
