Hi and welcome Don, I worked for Gardner Denver years ago designing Drawworks equipment.

You can however depreciate tools, equipment, and personal property items used in your active trade or business.You can write off certain mileage and trip expenses.

I no longer have the equipment to do any of the commercial artwork I use to do years ago.

Unless you know the circumstance revolving around the borrowing you won't know the extent of the lending.Businesses borrow money which are secured by mortgages on properties as part of a property lending e.g. equipment lending, AR, credit line, etc.

Costs will be very dependent on how high the work is and type of equipment needed.

I recently updated the automatic car wash equipment and the business is doing well.I became interested in apartment buildings when a car wash friend in North Dakota encouraged me. 

Often they will need to come out and verify your location, business, and see if you have a shredder and other necessary business equipment I believe.I will say that now that I have been using the management software Buildium (that integrates with MySmartMove btw) I have been amazed by how many people, including lower income, are searching for rentals, applying, and even paying rent on their phones.Best of luck to you.

Newbie here...tons of information and I love the analysis and feel like anyone looking at a new market or getting into a space should come equipped with this info.

They only split in 2000.If you're not blind and a total moron, that should tell you that there are certain things about a person's lifestyle that no one is equipped to understand from the outside looking in.

Some uses for a 7a loan include: partner buyout, working capital, refinance high-interest debt, primary debt refinance, purchase, and equipment loans.
