If truly all it needs is a new roof to be complete and ready to sell then a few ideas off the top of my head could be:1)  Borrow the money from friends or family to replace the roof2)  Put the cost of the roof on a no/low interest credit card and pay it off as soon as the house sells3)  Go through a home improvement store (like Home Depot) that offers financing for larger projects like roof replacement4)  Don't replace the roof and just lower your sales price or offer the buyers a credit to fix it themselves after closing

Prior to this bill, homeowners were required to replace parking spaces on the property if they were converting or demolishing their garage, carport, or covered parking space.

Cost segregation combined with bonus depreciation is huge.A lot easier to 1031 one 100 unit property than 100 individual houses.Apartment rehab often stays below the $2500 de minimis safe harbor per item (because apartment communities don't pay retail) - which means immediate deduction and no future depreciation recapture (i.e. an HVAC replacement may only cost $2400).Some apartment rehab above $2500 per item can be immediately deducted if it does not meet the 20% "unit of property" rules (i.e. replace one HVAC system in a ten unit building).

If the appliances are dated, replace them. 

These warranty companies are worthless as they advised that my Standard package (paid for by the seller) doesn't include replacement. 

Excluding land, tap fees, & engineering, etc.: about $135 sq foot.

The place isn't in that bad of shape moving in so I decided to turn key the property because I'm a student studying Mechanical Engineering which heavily prevents me from being able to deal with the house. 

Finishing work needed: Drywall, tape mud and sand, painting, hanging cabinets and laying countertop, carpet replacement, installing plumbing and electrical fixtures.
