We had to pay for a 3rd party to review the appraisal and either agree or disagree that it was done correctly.

A couple of things in regards to saving on taxes by utilizing depreciation correctly.

maybe only be extra $40,000 to build open loft... and I would guess I could possibly charge $2000/mo rent, not sure>>***I was kinda crunching numbers...if I'm estimating it correctly it will take me over 4.5 to 6.5 years in excess rent to make up the cost of building the private loft.....does that seem worth the extra loft cost?
