Doesn't take a brain surgeon to make those work.

Individuals are eligible for this program if their homes are located in an area that was designated by the President as a disaster area and if their homes were destroyed or damaged to such an extent that reconstruction or replacement is necessary.

After you reconstruct the owners' representations about the properties for sale (i.e., after you verify the rents and the major operating expenses like taxes and insurance, and apply your own experience about the typical costs to maintain and the amount you need to allow for potential vacancy), you decided that these properties are being offered at something closer to a 5% cap rate.Before you spend any more time or effort considering these properties, you know that, at their asking prices, they are not worthy competitors for your investment dollar.

Plus its introduced me to a lot of well off people. have a couple surgeons who follow my real estate adventures now and want to be cash investors. this car was just as much about networking as it was driving for fun. ironically its not landed me any girlfriends LOL@Jay Hinrichs you'd love the aftermarket exhaust on this thing.

I have not seen a specific judgement on notary, but the statute lists 11 types of real property trades or businesses: real property development, redevelopment, construction, reconstruction, acquisition, conversion, rental, operation, management, leasing, or brokerage.

There is an hours requirement but also it states that you MUST spend more time on REI than any other activities(s) A read a tax case not too long ago where a surgeon tried to qualify because he self managed his whole portfolio, yadda yadda...Ultimately the IRS said you're in the Operating room for 10 hours a day 6 days a week.
