So the IRS can bump taxes collected by challenging REP status, which that other thread mentions is pretty easy for an auditor and a lot of work for an investor to have over whelming documentation that doesn't look "fabricated" on the spot after the fact.The point of this thread:   Last month a CPA gave a talk to our REIA and mentioned that claiming REP also increases your IRS scrutiny of whether you 1099 your contractors faithfully. 

I fabricated all 3 of my fire pits at my STRs, they are all wood burning. 

And even then, documents can be fabricated.

Too many times that can be fabricated with a stolen SSN. 

Hello @Fabrice EliacinAn ordinary purchase and sale agreement will do.Now it must allow you to assign it i.e it must include terminology that gives you"and/or assigns" the right to purchase the specified property and a contigency clause should you fail to find a buyerCAUTION/DISCLAIMER: do your homework to build a buyer's list and work hard to market that deal in the specified time.Also read up on articles and blog posts here on the particular strategy as many wholesalers have received bad name due to recklessness of others

It takes less that 5 minutes on google to find out that a story about "growing up in the country and looking for land on which raise your own family" is a total fabrication and that the letter writer is a realtor.  

Welcome, Fabrice, and congratulations on your full time status in REI.Mostly there is a WHOLE LOT OF LOVE here, but sometimes there is a little flaming too.
