The interior layouts are pretty much all the same.I'm not quite done with inspections yet, so I don't know the condition of the electrical and mechanicals, but I do know the that the interiors all need updating (floors, cabinets, counters, sinks, paint, etc.)The problem is is that I'm out of state.

Hey all, I'm in Richmond VA market, one of the properties I am currently looking at is a split level it has the perfect layout to make it a duplex.

The layout looks like it might be a bit odd with the large addition on the rear. 

. $690k based on this but the unit layout plays a HUGE role in this number.

To make it more fun, you don't have to lay out specific xx% for capex, xx% for maintenance, you can put in the OA that it is a certain role's job to do financial planning, then you can have a meeting and put it into minutes and referendum.

Is there software that I can simply feed the size of the units I am looking to build inside the 8000 sq ft footprint and the software can determine best layout (accounting for elevator etc?)

Investment income (including rent) is considered passive income by the CRA and is not eligible for the small business reduction ... as a consequence it is taxed at the full corporate tax rate (which is about the same as your marginal rate).I would find yourself a good accountant and attorney, lay out bullet list of your real estate objectives and the will assist you in choosing the correct ownership structure for today which an morph into your future needs while mitigating your tax exposure in the process.

I will layout the dollar amounts below but I have a few questions...1.

There are a lot of subtleties depending on neighborhood differences, house styles, specific location issues (busy street, across from something undesirable), unusual layouts, small yard, no garage, structural issues,....
