This question is about best regards.
Is the R in "best regards" capitalized?
No, the R in "best regards" isn't capitalized. "Best regards," followed by your name, forms its own little phrase or paragraph of sorts. Because of this, you'd capitalize the B in "best" but leave the R in "regards" lowercase.
When you're formatting your closing, leave one blank line between your last paragraph and "best regards" and another blank line between "best regards" and your name. If you're writing a formal business letter instead of an email, you'll type "best regards," skip a line, sign your name, skip another line, and type your name.
The whole thing will be left-aligned along with the rest of your text and should have enough white space underneath it to not look crowded (at least a line or two should be enough). You should also put a comma after "best regards" to lead into your name.
If you're writing an email, it's often a good idea to put your job title, the name of the company you work for, your work email address, and your phone number under your name. If you're emailing a hiring manager about a new job or don't currently have a job at all, you can and probably should leave off your job title and company name.
The end result should look something like this (unless your company has its own template you need to use):
