Residential Rental House. Would like to take structural components (as repairs to rental). The repairs were windows 6000.00, doors 800.00, screen doors 460.00 and siding 6450.00. Per Reg c.s. 1.48-1(e)(2). It says walls, but is that siding?

I think the definition of walls in §1.48-1(e)(2) specifically refers to load bearing walls, as opposed to partitions or interior, non load bearing walls. The siding on the walls is a completely different thing. The siding is merely attached to the wall. Siding, from a depreciation/repair standpoint is no different than wallpaper or anything else you would put on a wall.
