Hi - Getting very close to completing my new build construction and had 2 questions around De Minimus Safe Harbor rules/accounting1)  For appliances that I purchase BEFORE official "available to rent" date.

Construction is in progress and expected to complete in September 2024.

Sounds like solid advice to me, and made me laugh - thanks David! 

(Unless we're talking about maybe a dog house)It sounds to me like you and your handyman have way different goals.

The paining done by the tenant was atrocious, cabinets had paint on the sides, baseboards, door & window trim were smeared in paint by these complete idiots.

Hello,How do you typically go about furnishing a mid to short term rental while being completely remote?

When I call on a public request, the other person's responses or lack of interest in my questions will determine my attitude in wanting to complete their request.

@Scott ScovilleHi Scott, I completely agree that the prices in California such as San Jose has completely sky rocketed, which makes it impossible for me to get my foot into the door comfortably.
