If you had made the option incorrectly you could have accidentally put the number of years over a small time in which it could have been eleigible for bonus depreciation; however, that would be incorrect.

In my experience, HVAC people, termite inspection companies and plumbers are the worst offenders in this category.

Bonus depreciation is your friend.

I'd say that it also depends on how you name your accounts, for me, "holding costs" are more of a category with several sub-categories or individual accounts.

For owning and home and comfort with a little bonus cash, sure.

Hello, I have been fixing up a 3 bed 1.25 house with a bonus room for the past few months.

Is in a whole different category from your average condo.7.

Would 50% bonus depreciation rule (for improvements) work here?

The bonus depreciation provision generally enables businesses to deduct half the cost of qualifying property in the year it is placed in service.

Also - be sure to "subscribe" to some categories - so that you'll be notified when those topics have new threads started.
