I have a contractor who claims some wire and can lights were "stolen".

It is now cleaned up and down to the studs ..everything needs to be done .. new roof , electrical, plumbing, flooring , all new fixtures abd lighting .. plus i am converting the attached carport into a new master bedroom thus adding Sqft.. turning it into a 1870 sqft 4/2 from a 1520 sqft 3/2 .

If you can get the receipts, and/or establish a written documentation of these with photos and sources in a "Cost Segregation Analysis" then take the total cost off your 27.5 year life property and add them back under the 5 year (flooring, rugs, light fixtures, appliances, etc>) or as 15 year property (landscaping, lawn sprinkling systems, patios, new driveways, etc.)  

I won’t comment here on my interpretation of how this plays out in terms of the DMSH, for that, you should consult your own professional.But…in light of all of the above, I’d be inclined to agree with Ashish’s post from 3 years ago.

That some judges use it adds particular weight. 

At 5k for 30 rooms (which is a really light renovation) they are still 150k out of pocket.  

In light of that, I know that to get pre-approved will require my credit to be run, and as you can imagine I do not want to acquire a bunch of inquiries on my credit, which would negatively effect my credit score.

Ends of the peaked roof are called gable ends.I would remove the shutters, space is too small for shutters, and install vertical vinyl siding, in a light pastel colour with a wide white trim around the windows.I would install new windows with divided panes.  

Looking for a deal in the Chicagoland area if you have any suggestions to help me find one fell free to weight in .

I would like to light a fire under her to get her moving.
