As an example, average year-over-year appreciation in Denver and Colorado Springs where we own properties is between 4-6% over the last 40 years (even accounting for two big dips).

Early in my investing career I wanted to cost seg my properties, but my accountant told me I was wasting my time because I was unable to use the full depreciation benefits I already had.

Property manager (PM) 's lawyer continued the case to get the unpaid rent from the tenant.PMA between landlord and property manager(PM) has also expired so landlord got the property back , but when landlord requested to settle the account and the deposit( there is one month deposit from landlord also), PM refuses since the lawsuit is going on with the tenant, Additionally PM is still charging the monthly property management fees from landlord even though landlord is managing the property.Landlord is done dealing with PM and requested the PM to withdraw the lawsuit against the tenant ( landlord is aware that he will loose 2 months rent), PM came back saying they cannot withdraw the lawsuit since that will violate fair housing law.QUESTION:Does withdrawing unpaid rent case against the tenant violate fair housing law ?

@Armell MayersBigger Pockets is a great place to find a real estate tax accountant.

That's because the city won't calculate the actual amount till a structure is built, aka it's not just a plot of land anymore.This will obvious cause your property tax bill to go up and also your mortgage escrow account as well (sometimes these things can make your mortgage shoot up a few hundred a month). 

For the most part all you do is monitor your bank account.  

There are some accountants out there who say that the very act of doing a 1031 exchange is an attempt to avoid tax and so a 1031 purchase from a related party is a non-starter.
