I'm a real estate agent specializing in investment properties in Pinellas County, particularly near the beaches.

Investing in real estate with your own money and from a position of financial strength is, I believe, a far more rewarding experience than leveraging other people's money and being dependent on a positive outcome to keep you afloat. 

Looking at the totality of these factors, my conclusion was that the "benefits and burdens" test is met on the auction date.Does it contradict the Revenue Ruling you cited?

And it's a highly safe investment.

It’s advisable to consult with a tax professional who has experience with real estate investments to ensure that this strategy aligns with IRS regulations and your financial goals.

This type of investment, not living there will give you nightmares till the day you die.  

Hello, I am a newbie to the real estate/investing world and just started my journey in the research process.

House Hacking is a wonderful way to get started in investing.

I'm Blondell from Northern California, passionate about real estate investing for many years and finally hoping to have my first property in the next 6 months.

In my experience, traditional banks tend to have pathetic mortgage lending competence because they haven't invested or cared about this vertical in over a decade.
