    Guarantee fee paid on purchase of rental

    Client purchased a house to be a rental. On the closing statement is a "guarantee fee" to the Rurual Housing Development of $2898. I know on a personal residence you can take it all in the year of purchase. IS that the same as for a Rental property? Or should it be amortized over 7 years?

      From what I can gather, this "guarantee fee" is not points. And is not deductible at all. Add to basis. See definition of such fees.
