It ends up being $10 a month and would have the equipment paid for within a year.

Second, with ownership there is no lien on the property, but the solar system is secured by UCC1 equipment filing until paid for.

No, Section 179 is for purchase of equipment and vehicles....depreciation for res teal estate is 27.5 years straight line. 

Heating and cooling equipment probably gets more use, maybe more maintenance, right?

Guy was fired and cleaned out the equipment room on his way out the door.

One word of caution is that if you buy a house towards the back of Lehigh acres like i did without many other houses around its likely your water equipment will be stolen which cost over 2K to replace. it has happened to me twice so i ended up paying for it to be installed in the garage. you can also get a cage installed around the equipment but its still can be stolen so im told.Other than that its been a good source of income. i bought 4 years ago so its turned into a good buy and hold now. i would be interested in more sfr in that area too.  

I owe about 80k on my current mortgage (cost me 578/month), cars are owned outright, one rental property is used as collateral for a 25k line of credit, another comercial rental property is owned by an llc of mine that is owner financed for like 280k (2200/month),  15k on discover card, 4k on another card, 4k and another card.Over half a million in assets counting all the properties and equipment in the businesses.What are your guys thoughts? 

Hello,I am doing customer research for a new business venture to equip landlords and property managers with technology to improve their business, specifically in Single Family Home rentals or smaller apartment buildings.

When it comes to true wealth-producing investments, you will not be swinging a hammer, kicking a shovel, pushing a wheel-barrow or operating heavy equipment.

Though in bank-land, commercial multifamily is 5+ units, in Portland code-land, it's 3+ units, meaning you'd then have to equip your units with sprinklers and whatever else code now dictates.
