Looking for different ideas for durable window treatments for privacy for rental properties?

Our inspection period expires on 9/15, inspection is scheduled for tomorrow, 9/13 - we don't expect any significant surprises based on a preliminary visual check.  

If you are thinking rehab and resell, then documenting every step, showing you waited for all the framing to get dry enough to re-drywall and perhaps getting pro mold treatment with a warrenty would help mitigate flood value loss.

If your CPA or cost segregation firm are doing that for these interior rehab items, that is a poor tax treatment.  

@Toni Annis banker is partially correct regarding the 1031 portion of things.To qualify for 1031 treatment the tax payer for the old property needs to be the same tax payer for the new property.  

An LLC owned by husband-and-wife is given the same joint tax treatment as your joint return would.

This way the IRS can't challenge your valuation by asserting the other party has treated the transaction inconsistently with your treatment.
