Keep in mind of the I/O(payments/period) and game plan on how fast you'd like to pay it down. 

The GC and the sub ended up sharing in the cost mostly (I think) because it was better than the finger pointing game that had already started, and realistically the attorney's were the only ones about to win...

Your 'cost' should include everything, from land purchase, soft costs, holding costs, and hard costs.

In your case, changing the property from a rental to your primary residence constitutes a change in use.The depreciation recapture will be calculated based on the fair market value of the building at the time of conversion, not including the land value.Since you're tearing down the existing structure, the entire amount of depreciation taken over the past two years will likely be recaptured, as the building's value at conversion will effectively be zero.The recaptured amount will be taxed as ordinary income, up to a maximum rate of 25% for residential rental property (Section 1250 property).

Roll them all up and the averages are:purchase $154krenovate $47Ksell $232kThese are gross numbers, not including closing costs, borrowing costs, holding costs, licensing and permit costs, G&A, overhead, commissions, forward rate buy-downs, and lease-up fees, to name a few of the many expenses incurred. 

I’ve been focusing on building triplexes in Columbus, Ohio, and it’s been a game-changer.

Many people have had a great experience with home warranties, myself included.

I immediately called Financial Freedom they explained that the $200 was for their "pay -site" which includes a free weekly conference call, etc.

We don't allow any "deal-making" in the forums, which includes advertising your services or properties, looking for partners, etc.

I don't remember the exact cost when I did it but I remember thinking it was cheaper than expected.I didn't see a comment mentioning that you should just include utilities in the rent and increase it based off that so I'll be that guy.
