@Louise Cornell sounds like a good deal. Mind sharing address or block? I'm looking at a Germantown deal for 105k with 50k rehab and 180arv. I think it will rent for 1400

@Petur Karlsson

Hey Peter, I am also a real estate investor in Pa. I am looking into having my wife qualify as a real estate professional this year. We have three rentals and another one under contract. We also manage the rentals ourselves.

Let me know if you find a good real estate focused CPA. i have used CPAs the last two years but they are not soley focused in real estate so i may be missing some tax benefits.

I would also like to know if we can count researching new properties, analyzing properties, real estate education(webinars, books, bp articles/forums, YouTube videos, etc.), communication with lenders. Contractors, other investors, wholesalers, insurance agents, etc.

Great thread, im looking forward to hearing from more professionals on this topic
