"THE CONSUMER FINANCIAL PROTECTION BUREAU HAS PUBLISHED THE FINAL REGULATIONS ON THE DODD-FRANK LEGISLATION AND IT WILL AFFECT THE WAY REAL ESTATE INVESTORS WILL DO THEIR BUSINESS ONCE THEY KICK IN."

I would bet 1000 cases of Lone Star longnecks that John Jackson knows the lease option laws and regs (executable contracts) from the idiot RE legislators in Austin TX better than any man alive or dead.Any BP poster care to wager?

Know them better than the tenant and keep up on any legislative changes.

The $500 number is based off the new regulations for taxpayers without a financial statement.http://tax.cchgroup.com/downloads/files/pdfs/legislation/repair-capitalization-regulations.pdf

So this is a very, err, exotic question, but what I'm looking for is this:Reconstructable structures for a beach club.The thing is France has had some legislation passed which abolishes beach clubs (think Saint Tropez) that are kept all year round in "environmentally sensitive zones" (i.e. everywhere).They still allow licenses on leased beach land during the season (april-october) but outside of that, they need to magically disappear.Save from having a 400.000 EUR write-off every year, I believe there has to be another way.

Due to property tax reform, the sale amount is considered the market value,For that trade off and anti business legislation there was homeowner tax relief.

@Jenni G. yes,excessive and is an example of greed that will propel lawmakers to legislate against non refundable fees for move in costs. 

New construction is exempt from the rent control portion of the legislation for 15 years.  

Plus, there's no telling what additional legislation may be passed, so I feel counting on a future 'wave' of foreclosures is risky in and of itself, since it may not come to pass.

Once he loses his money or property to legislation, or bad land lording laws, he'll understand.
