Building materials get capitalized into your basis;

Tool costs, to the extent used to perform work that must be capitalized,
as opposed to ordinary maintenance and repair, also get capitalized into
basis;

labor costs, to the extent they performed work that must be capitalized,
as opposed to ordinary maintenance or repairs, also get capitalized into
basis;

taxes - too broad to easily characterize; however, items like sales taxes
imposed on tool or labor purchases are part of the cost and get
capitalized to the extent the underlying cost gets capitalized;

HOA dues/fees - deducted, not capitalized.


Thanks.

The taxes are real estate taxes.

Do I do a Schedule E to deduce HOA fees, or can I do that on a schedule A?
