There are still tax benefits available and net metering spots are opening back up this year after approx. 2500 applications will be released if they do not act on an installation. 

It essentially involves: (1) the seller granting you an option to buy the property; (2) you finding a buyer; (3) the seller and buyer entering into a contract for the sale of the property; and (4) you releasing the option simultaneously at the closing where the buyer buys the property from the seller.

According to new information released by the National Association of Realtors, steady growth in the commercial real estate market is expected throughout 2017.

The IRS liens will have to dealt with where the IRS either releases their right to redeem or a disposition will be filed where they have 120 days to respond. 

HI Andrew,Most of the issues you may hear about 203k experiences usually stem from either the closing period up front or the post closing with the funds and disbursements because it can be a nightmare if the work your general contractor (GC) is not up to the inspectors requirements and the draw does not get released.

A title company or closing attorney would have contacted you to ask you for a release.

We are looking to just sell because the lender is not releasing anymore draws.

Now you have small little pockets across the country where demand is way outpacing supply and you can almost charge whatever rent you want but that is not the norm.When landlords analyze charging top market rent, losing a tenant, and then releasing a space many times over in a 10 year period they often get further ahead having a longer term tenant that stays with middle market rent and increases each year with inflation.The quality of the overall tenant based on many metrics seems to be more important then just a higher arbitrary rent number going in being the deciding factor.  

If so, I'd probably look into a partial lien release with the IRS. 

What remains up the in air is whether or not it will be considered passive or active income going forward.Proposals still have a long way to go beyond the whitepaper released on Wednesday - I doubt we'll have anything concrete until around September or so.
