Resolved Question: what is a home equity line of Credit?

What is the difference between these depreciation method, when can it be used? GDS MACRS, straight line, 27.5 years & ADS MACRS, straight line, 40 years

Ex
Bought a property in Dec 2003
converted to rental in January 2005
Tax prepare used 100,000 (fake figure) as a base and in line 19h of form 4562 wrote 1-1-05, 100,000, 27.5, MM, S/L in subsequent column and In column (g) of the same line (19h) he wrote 2500 as depreciation deduction.

Which above (GDS/ADS) method did he used? Why is he depreciating property over 40 year but writing 27.5 years as a recovery period? I’m confused. Pl advice.

Is Interest on Line of credit (home equity) of this home used to bring down the principle of other rental property fully deductible?

I got a form 1098-T (full time), In box 1 it says $1000 and in BOX 4. IT SAYS 10.25. what’s the effect of the amount in box 4.

Answer to any question will be helpful, Thx

Resolved Question: I need a home equity line of credit or a loan?

Whats the difference between a loan and a line of credit?
Do you think its ok to search for the lender on the internet or should I go to my bank who refused it 2 yrs ago even though my FICO score was over 700? Its 760 now.
Do most people get quotes for the work they need or do they just borrow over and beyond what they think they need?
What are they going to ask me for when I apply for the equity line of credit?
