If the insulation is in decent shape and not covered by combustible insulation, and not terribly overloaded, it might last many more years.

Quote from @Aj Green: Hey,(Posting again as I sign today so it is urgent)Is there any cheaper lender than a 6.75% for an Ohio investment property.No brokers fees, 110k, no points, 760+ credit score, 20% down, 140k value, no realtors, single family, rent covers mortgage, 30 year term fixed.Thanks for the help!

I just went through this last year, but after 20 years. 

Or like many small in businesses you raise cash from friends family and anyone else that knows loves and trusts you.The other thing I suggest is to make that $27,000 or $37000, or $50000 yourself over the next year. 

Quote from @Melanie Baldridge: In 2025 the bonus depreciation rate is 40%.This means that if you bought a property for $1M in 2025, did a cost seg study and found $300K in eligible assets that you could depreciate, you could take 40% of that $300K as bonus depreciation to offset your income in the first year.40% of $300K = $120K.You then apply that $120K to the owner’s personal tax rate to find the final amount that they can defer in year 1.If your tax rate is 37%, you can defer $66.6K.This is a big deal even at the 40% bonus depreciation rate this year.It’s a massive benefit 

I specialize in helping out-of-state investors buy and sell here for +9 years.

Long story short, I have no primary home and the property the guesthouse is being built on is a LLC with 3 years remaining of 20k PPP.

Then the seller is holding a note for 5 years.

Our first one took about 3 years to fully finish out.

Or sell using the 1031 exchange along with a partial 121 primary residence exemption There is a way you could take advantage of the 121 primary residence exclusion allowing you to take the first $250k of the gain tax free ($500k if married) and qualify for a 1031 exchange.Say you purchase a property as your primary residence (house hack extra rooms for extra income) and lived there for two years while stationed there.
