.- R/E CPA in CA

Hi AllWe are selling our gas station/property and provided the buyer with the past 3 years business tax returns and are doing an inspection, but I received an email form the buyer saying their banker is asking for my Schedule E, why would they need my Schedule E for the loan?

Happy to- Donovan InsuranceTim Petre102 E 6th St.Auburn, IN 46706Good luck!

Sec. 1.167(a)-(11)(e)(1)(i) provides that property is considered to be placed in service when it is “first placed in a condition or state of readiness and availability for a specifically assigned function” (emphasis added).

We try to do a walk-through with the new tenant at some point to show them emergency shut off locations, instructions on filter changes, etc. so I wouldn't recommend just dropping keys off and that's it, but I have had probably 2 or 3 tenants over the years that I never met, just talked to by e-mail or text.  

Just need to find a property that has large enough of a lot to fit the added unit.Design / permitting / AHJI think I will budget a year for design and permits / SDG&E coordination / city water etc.

Do you perhaps know where the checkbox for passive vs nonpassive is on Schedule E?

If 10% per your example, maybe not since doing nothing would get me close to 4%.d/e.  

Overall, he seems to want to do a basic cost seg for me on the FF&E and Capital Improvements and leave the original basis of the property on the conventional depreciation schedule.I would love some feedback, personal experience, thoughts on this matter.
