Bonus depreciation however is available.Yes, your tools would be depreciable; Ryan,Offer a discount if they mow the lawn themselves.

Hopefully they will appreciate some and that would be even a bigger bonus!

Also, banks LOVE dentists and doctors, and a dentist that is also a minority is probably a bonus.

You can pay it back either according to the amortization schedule, or you can pay it all off at once, but you may not make irregular payments to it (something like getting your tax return back or getting a bonus).Now here's the super-double bonus.

You could also offer them a small bonus so they are your advocate in a weird way.  

And very close to where I live, so that's a bonus!

couple things either the investors don't like the area and don't agree with your numbers.. or they don't have confidence in your ability to execute.And or your not paying enough for the capital if you can't pull this off you should offer up a 50 /50 or 70/30 to the money so you at least get a deal.. and start to build your experience bucket.Its one thing I see most that are starting out do that is in my mind a critical error.. they think they should be able to borrow private money and get as cheap as money as possible.. when in fact starting out it should be the opposite ... they should be looking for someone who will take a flyer with them since they have no money or real experience and will mitigate a potential loss with a very big upside.Once you get a few of these under your belt and have track record and maybe a little jingle in your pocket you can go HML route with no partner or your current partners will have enough trust and faith to give you bonus or better returns.those starting out need to get deals done no shop for the cheapest money waste a ton of time on the front end finding the deals and then lose them because they could not get them funded.If you made 10k on this deal and the investor made 40k at least you got something instead of having to make this post that your deal failed.Think about it.Even after 40 years in this business I know my competition for investor dollars is always trying to find cheapest money...

I'm not saying it can't be done because it certainly can, especially with tax free deployments and bonus money.  

Even more of a bonus, the now owner got so many calls from potential renters that he was able to raise the rents a good bit more then I had anticipated/quoted him.  

I give s $200.00 bonus if they place a qualified tenant in a vacancy within 30 days of a tenant leaving one of my front doors.
