For all of 2015, however, the building remained vacant.I'm wondering if I can count the depreciation expenses from 2015 in that year, and if not, can they be carried over to 2016?

We think this would be a great time to house hack a small multi-family rather than paying extreme rents or carrying a complete mortgage ourselves.  

She said plus, the tenant would be responsible for all repairs because he's renting to OWN.I told my agent, 'but I will have to finance the purchase so there can't be a rent to own contract if I carry a note on the house.' 

So, there's this commercial property for sale that the owner has owned since the early 90s and he stated he will carry a contract for deed.Asking Price: $190KRequired Down Payment: $30KAPR: 6%Loan Term: 20 yearsNOI: $15K - $20K per yearThe property is a couple hours away from where I live and I do not know how many businesses lease from the building (obviously I will ask).

This job pays enough to carry me while home until it's time for me to redeploy.

Owner wants to carry 90%.

Needless to say, this is much more than I was planning to start with and don't have the finances for the $140,000 up front costs.The seller has offered to provide financing, but I'm yet unsure if they are willing to carry the entire note, but does want the freedom to transfer the note to another party.  

No grey areas in that message, leave or we will carry you out.  

In our state, I doubt a restraining order would prevent the carrying away of basic personalty, but if it is a really heinous person that might do things like strip copper or something and has a bad criminal history, I could see a restraining order being issued.I'd be happy to dig up some case law for my particular state, but I'd warn that it isn't applicable in yours.

Would it be hypothetically possible to move title and the loan into an SCorp and carry back a guaranty on the debt which would not show up on a credit report.
