FIFO, LIFO, etc) are not available for real estate.The technically correct term for it is "real estate held for resale", not "inventory" although pretty much everyone in the industry calls it inventory.Treatment is similar, but method of accounting is more restricted....in a nutshell.

So technically $280,000 would be a loan.

Since we'd be breaking our lease almost 2 months early, obviously our landlord said that we would be responsible for the remaining rent and utilities until our leased expired OR we found another tenant.With our 30 Days Notice, we would "technically" need to be out on 4/4/19, whether or not we got a tenant to take our place or not.
