I had a similar experience with my first SFH in Kansas City, and before taking a flight I wanted to make sure everything penciled out beforehand, then I felt is was time to take a look at the landscape.

I look at how well kept the landscape, garage space, elevator, and walkways on the path to the home are; I look for quality neighborhoods.

Landscaping would help as well.

So without a cost-segregation study, I will still be able to depreciate my 5yr (free standing appliances), 15yr(landscaping and fence) and 27.5yr(majority of the renovations) renovations along their normal straight-line depreciation?

The strong GDP growth is indicative of the city's economic vitality and overall prosperity.According to census data, the housing landscape in Raleigh between 2010 and 2020 exhibited a variety of house types.

Tenant agrees that all improvements installed in and on the Premises, including landscaping (bushes, shrubs, ground cover, trees, and flowers) shall, at the option of Owner remain with the Premises upon termination of the Lease at no cost to Owner .

Keep in mind we did upgrades that brought a lot of value to the property (ie. new open concept, kitchen and bathroom, windows, floors and paint, landscape).  

Scenario is that I am looking to purchase a SF home that needs some work, say 10% of the purchase price, for updates like new flooring/kitchen and bathroom rehab/landscaping/bathroom remodels.

I conservatively estimated the gross rents, I found most of the other expenses taxes, insurance, water, landscaping, management, etc. and exaggerated the others.
