What do you all do with window treatment at your rental?

Can I charge the tenants for the cost of treatment or do I have to take on this cost?

CPA firms discuss RE and tax treatment.......The information is out there, it's just that people are too lazy to work to find the information and read it!

Note:  Although this asset class description says "refinance expenses", I enter my points as if they were refinance expenses because the tax treatment is exactly the same as the loan origination fees for a new rental acquisition.  

I just wanted to ensure that there wasn't any special "treatment" that I should give them.Thanks all for your replies!

There is something illegal about it because Federal laws trump state laws and the Feds don't recognize medical marijuana laws.DEA states it's a Schedule I substance with no currently accepted medical use in treatment in the United States.The DEA doesn't want a casual user they only want the growers and trafficker of larger quantities of pot.

got it. there are IRS publications that I went thruhttp://www.irs.gov/publications/p527/ch02.html#en_US_2010_publink1000219096In my case the difference in accounting treatment is so immaterial I am not sure they would even want to spend time on it..but who knowslet me asks you what they are asking when the audit actually hits you. do you have to show up with the receipts and a copy of your tax return only?

I have always maintained the pool myself, but no way I would want to leave that to tenants.Based on some research I think I might be able to rent it for $1600 a month, which leaves a breakdown that looks like this:$1600 per month -$827.56 for mortgage payment - $20 HOA fee - $170 pool maintenance - $99 property mgmt fee - $47.63 lawn treatment = $435.81 net per month.I was thinking of setting up a separate account and funding it with $5000 just to cover any repairs and what not. 

If it's the tenant, they are responsible for treatment costs.  

If they put the 1031 into something with predictable passive cash flow net of expenses then you have predictable income with which to leverage your construction business but at the same time they keep their 1031tax deferral intact.A big key to this would be for them to invest in debt free instruments that qualify for 1031 treatment but minimize risk and concentrate the risk into the endeavor with you.
