My screening process has the typical income, background, face to face components, but I also think experience helps.

@Frank Jiang MACRS is for Equipment/components, not real property. 

There are two components when it comes to contributions to your Solo 401k plan.1) Elective deferrals - $18,000 (plus $6,000 catch up for those who are over 50 year of age).

A rather short sighted - both environmentally and economically - view.Most toilet manufactures submit their models for MAP testing.  

With the Roth 401k, I was told that the employee annual contribution up to $17,500 would go toward a Roth component within the 401k and the employer match up to $33,500 would go toward a traditional 401k component (which would be taxed in retirement upon withdrawal).

@Jonathan Dick    as I reflect on this and since I am a NMLS licensed mortgage banker ( currently inactive) in Oregon.I still take all my CE and one of the big components of CE is the predatory lending that caused the huge melt down..

Because of the environmental benefits of engineered vs. hardwood, engineered is coming here but it's still early.  

@Jack Martin When you say "we compiled a full DD package on the property" did that include just the financial due diligence (and not the results of a physical inspection and environmental)?

With the residential component, that may help relieve some pricier loan terms but depending on some other concepts, those terms might still be a little more.
