Under the new tangible property regulations I would expense the roof if the new roofing material was similar to the old roofing material (example asphalt shingle to asphalt shingle) (unless the roof was already in a state of disrepair when you acquired the property and it has not deteriorated to a complete state of disrepair. We only have to capitalize if we have a betterment when compared back to the condition it was in when we placed it in service, adapts property to a new of different use, or is a restoration (restoration I do not believe applies because it was not in a complete state of disrepair....ie basically falling in). Each of these tests have a bunch of stuff under it, most people dont understand them, but i have been writing off roofs often when the facts are on my side - often they are. The new Regs a few years ago totally changed the rules on what must be capitalized and each expenditure should be analyzed carefully. Google tangible property regulations if you cant sleep one night! PM me if you need an opinion on capitalize vs expense as it pertains to your fact pattern

I'm a CPA and I love Quickbooks online. The old grey haired CPAs hate it because they dont know how to use it. You can do anything in the online that you can do with the desktop version plus your info available anywhere you have a mobile or internet connection! To me that is huge! Mobile is the way of the future - your data does you no good in the office - you need it real time on the go!

I am shocked there is no due diligence period. If you still have not inspected arent you in the due diligence period where you can back out for any reason?

@Brian Adams great story.  I identified a lot with it as a CPA who does similar type of tax work!
