Anthony thanks for taking the time to respond to my post the cash flow issue will not be resolved until my brother who lives at the house is not able to care for himself at that point then I will have a decision to make on this property, my thoughts were can I consider the house a business expense for tax purposes or do I need to consider it as personal property for the taxes.

First, legal steps like a post-judgment writ or wage garnishment can help.

Well, I've been trying to share a local lender that can work with you but the forum rules won't all me to post his contact information.

I would recommend posting pictures in your neighborhood or area of homes you like for more help. 

And if I ever add one to my home I’m going to point to this post as to why I deducted it as a real estate investing expense.

Perhaps I'll post it in the marketplace if it seems like a good deal.

Anyhoo… A few questions that I have not yet really found the answers to that I would like to get some insight on with a post.
