The real property (structural components) doesn't qualify for bonus depreciation and would still have the 27.5 year for rental and 39 year for commercial property depreciation schedules.

Hello BP,I’m in need of a local commercial real estate closer within the Spring TX and Houston TX region.Need to close a deal urgently as quick as possible.Any recommendations will be appreciated.

It's only a stepping stone to break free.While you are slaving, eat ramen, roommate up or live in trailer, avoid Starbucks and tuck every dollar you can squeeze out into a bank account. need 20% down and money for materials. so for 80K home (trashed), you will want 35K banked to get started, just a rough idea.Get a pro account on this site so you can access the PRO only blogs and avoid all the goofy stuff that can confuse you sometimes.Take NO advice from salesmen such as realtors/brokers.

You'll also have access to more of the tools. 

I personally took the classes to get a license and was planning on actually completing my license, (though never did because I moved to CA), in MA for a few reasons. 1) The cost was low, I think I only paid about $400 for the course.2) The time commitment was low, you only need to complete 40 hours of instruction.3) If I wanted to get a license, I could do so and hang it with a broker simply to help myself with my own process of accessing the MLS and being more self sufficient.Having completed the course I can tell you that you will learn nuances to real estate that you didn't already know. 

@Edison ReisYou can try looking on the sites of the various commercial brokerages: CBRE, Cushman-Wakefield, etc., however IMHO (and experience) the properties that make it to a listing are generally not a deal.    

This sounds like the price is too high or they have found a better deals after closer look.It really depends on many factors, like what is the exact location, what is the shape of the lot, how is subdivided,  how is it accessed, how far are the closes utilities, are those private / public, is there any public access, are the access sufficient or do you have to build a new roads etc. 

Does anyone know what classifies as "commercial housing property" in the state of maine?

You can find the median rents and median home values.Another option is to work with an agent who has access to the MLS.

Contact local real estate agents (if you are talking about residential) or commercial brokers (if you are talking about multifamily).
