If filing as investor (expenses on Schedule A) can:
1. Sec 179 be taken?
NO, SEC 179 REQUIRES A MINIMUM OF 50% USEAGE IN A TRADE OR BUSINESS.

2. Can a home Office deduction be taken for rent and utilities
NOT IN MY OPINION, GENERALLY - BUT IF YOU ARE MAKING BIG $$$ AT IT AND YOU HAVE A TRULY SERIOUS AND DEDICATED OFFICE ENVIRONMENT SET-UP, THEN I'D LIKELY CONSIDER IT.

DEDICATED UTILITIES...??? YES

3. How is the sale of an asset that has been depr. on sch. A Treated?
Do I file 4797?
YES, I BELEIVE SO

If yes where would the loss flow to( I already know it will be a loss)
