@David DavidWe have to make guesses because of the limited details you provided.If you have a Sch C business, say a general contractor business, and you use a space that you own as a warehouse for your business, then you deduct all expenses, such as local property taxes, utilities and depreciation of this property on the same Sch C.If you use half of it for your own GC business and rent the other half to someone else's business, then the rental income goes on Sch E.

I'll leave you with this thought: with the way this financing is designed, if you had $100K in liquid assets, you could borrow up to $300K (and higher depending on experience) to use on one project or multiple projects. 

But we also have some stocks that I want to liquidate in the next month to take profit.
