I am mainly looking for a property with value add components.

Maintenance wise, less issues and easier to repair (component swap).

I do know a huge component of their business was the cost of water.

I agree each property will have components of different age, but doesn't their estimate assume the best case of brand new components with a full remaining life?

Most of the time they are also licensed and would be able to help you appreciate if whatever the opportunity is a good value. 5) A LOT of these TK providers sell OLD properties which will need a lot of major components replaced if your inspection doesn't reveal the replacement of those systems "sometimes you can win betting on borrowed time" 

I factor in the age of the components when I'm writing my offers.  

What are your value add component on this property?  

Hi BP,I read that you can depreciate more if you depreciate building and components separately, and that big buildings are often depreciated this way.

. $5,500/yr for IRA)- Ability to access up to $50K of your retirement funds tax and penalties free prior retirement via participant loan feature- Greater protection from creditors- No need for a custodian + checkbook control- Exempt from UBIT on leveraged real estate - Tax-free investing with built-in Roth component - and more!

Yes if they are a component of the total costs capitalized specifically attributable to the acquisition of the property.
