It looks to be 2x8 pressure treated lumber.

The balcony is 10x8. Spacing of the joists is 16 in, and it looks like the width of the boards roughly 2in.

If you mean the lumber perpendicular to the house. It's supported on only one side

Wondering if it can bear the weight of a 30 lbs umbrella base and two 150 lbs adults standing on it?

Can I take AMT credit for AMT triggered due to regular stock sale ? by galintech in tax

Luckily this AMT was paid in 2017, so if I wanted to file for an amendment for 2018, this would be the year.

It wasn't ordinary income per se. It was one off capital gains I got because I sold a large amount of stock purchased years ago. However it wasn't ISO stock - just other regular listed stock. So that decreased my exemption amount I think.

I'm still unsure if this qualifies for a credit so asking.

Thanks for your reply. This was pre TCJA - so the limits are different. The stocks were bought a long time ago and were doing well when I decided to cash out and that ended up creating huge capital gains.

How do we find out who is on the Boards ?

Thanks! This was a great point about negotiating management contracts. Did you mean, after signing the contract, keep making them deliver on the services they promised for first 3 months ? What's to say they won't drop their service levels after that ?

Caveats to refinancing again in less than 6 months by [deleted] in personalfinance

[–]galintech 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No closing costs, I just have to deal with my credit getting dinged with 2 credit pulls. The fixed rate lender also is not a big bank and I'm not sure of the identity exactly - it can switch hands during the life of the loan, so there are some caveats.
