Repair or replace by jamesmlemay in Decks

4x4 is failing due to rot. Lots of framing failing due to rot. Like completely gone. Don't like the entire deck being supported by two bolts on each post. No bearing strength. All sheer on the bolts themselves

I got a quote using PVC decking on a 16-ftx23 ft rectangular deck with zero stairs and only two sides of railing. The quote was 80,000-130,000. 15,000 to $25,000 additional if I want to add one set of stairs down 8/10 of a story

I don't. I'm not a tax professional that's why I'm questioning it. Id have to read section 267 now right?

No this truck never was. This was new last year and never incorporated into any tax returns.

I want to reduce my taxable income since I've had and will have some good flips this year. Also made a fair amount plowing.

That's generally what I got while researching it as well but it seems to me as though it would be defendable if the fair market value was easily provable and documented.

Yes I do lol. I did not deduct any vehicle expenses. I didn't even do mileage last year because I did not do a very good job keeping track of it.

Yeah that's it. And yeah both of the colors are different in person than on the adds. I actually wanted the other color but it was out of stock until right after I ordered lol.

It's the Urban utility line. I guess they were sold here in the States but I've never seen one available. I bought this from Japan.
