If you do anything, i would keep it minimal like fill in holes, paint and only fix what needs fixing. A/c of course. If you take fha/hud offers you may have to do a little more.

What part of Baker, out of curiosity. We sold a property couple years ago near the little league pond at market value, did very little fix up. Baker is small but spread out with odd markets.
Close enough, they’re both reptiles
I’m about 20 miles directly south of the bottom of Lake Michigan, it’s pretty thick here, too.
re: How are SALT Deductions Legal?
Posted by ValZacs on 6/2/26 at 7:42 pm to CubsFanBudMan
quote:
You are allowed to deduct the larger of your actual state income tax or a calculated estimate of sales tax as an itemized deduction. The deduction is also capped at $10k, which the blue states hate.
Not for 2025 tax year. $40K cap w/income parameters.

Well, first you have to have enough deductions to use Schedule A, or you can’t claim it anyway. So, state and local income taxes as well as property taxes can be itemized just like mortgage interest, medical expenses above a certain % threshold, etc. But if it doesn’t exceed your std deductiin, combined, you get nothing anyway.

You are on the wrong path here. Salt deductions are not a direct tax deduction but rather a reduction in taxable income.
re: No more pesky inspection stickers

So if, in effect, the bill eliminates the inspection program/sticker requirement, what purpose does the $6 QR code serve?
So, in other words, status quo, just adding in additional layers of bureaucracy

They have any idea of origination point?

That’s my first cousin’s grandson at 2B for LaTech. Proud of that young man.
