  1. DIBS, missed that “when sold” piece of debate. if you’re right, that’s a sweet arbitrage oppty. say if one is some wiggle room on the tax free cap gains on RE sale (ie 150k of gain so 100k below the cap), shifting some cost into rental (ie via depreciation) say for 100k worth, one would be able to get 250k worth of benefits. the 250k cap gains on ppty sale would be tax free. the loss on rental portion gets to net against ordinary income. wow, this is sounding super juicy. I need to go research this

  2. Joe, CGar and Dave said what I was going to say. When you can’t back yourself up verbally, you threaten someone physically? If you are trying to intimidate me, it ain’t going to work. You’re not talking to some little pushover.

    You took a cheap shot, I took a cheap shot back (Dave reposted the comments). I didn’t say anything that wasn’t common knowledge anyways. Why don’t you read up on that again.

    P.S. The only way you’re going to get banned is if people on here write to Mr. B and I for one, am not going to do that.

  3. Chicken – i think we would be very happy there, as long as the co-op board is easy going and we have autonomy to do as we please then we should be fine. I reallllly liked the nabe when we went this past sunday and husband likes that it’s safe for me
    ahh London!

  4. “I’d check on who people are supporting”

    Do I have to pick a side? I don’t even remember what the argument was about. This morning was so long ago.
    I’ll pick whom to support like I pick a football team to cheer for….based on what they’re wearing.

    Joe what are you wearing?
    Kens what are you wearing?

  5. m4l, the point we are discussing is when the building is sold. I know I’m right on this and benson has since found something that supports my stance.

    It is something important enough that may sway someone as to when they sell an investment property.
