I am 100% positive that Fresno and/or Fresno County has some great deals out there....you just have to pull the trigger!

There is a special way to report it to get the deduction while not triggering a computerized notice from the IRS disallowing the deduction.

Hello all, I am currently interested in finally pulling the trigger and getting into my first property towards my RE portfolio.

If you feel they're being too harsh, think about their intent.

If not, you could take title as an individual and later transfer to an LLC (you might trigger some due on sale and/or transfer tax, so get legal representation on that).If LLC is not possible, I've used Revocable Living Trusts many times. 

And personally I cannot pull the trigger on a turnkey operator.

It's also upsetting her kids' skin because it is so harsh, so a simple drinking water filter isn't a favored solution. 

If you don't want opinions that conflict with your level of understanding, maybe think about getting into a different line of work where you won't be so triggered and upset?

Check out the 1040 instructions if you want to find the penalties, and what triggers them.

its just everything else real estate related I bet 20% of so called investors buy 80% of the props.. the rest are dreamers or afraid to pull the trigger are supreme time wasters. and or the number crunchers who rely on some spread sheet to determine their returns etc etc.
