Rental improvement date placed in service

Remodeling on a rental was done throughout the year.  Date placed in service?  Dec?  Home was "usable" throughout.

Doesn't qualify to be expensed under safe-harbor rules?  I have been known to use July for everything if it doesn't look like it would make much difference from breaking it down even further.

27.5 years is a long run....  a few months either way doesn't usually make much difference... i agree w/ Bob

"Home was "usable" throughout."

And occupied? Or at the least, made available to rent?

[linduca1216]

Yes, it was occupied.
