To reduce your tax bill, consider qualifying for Real Estate Professional Status (REPS) by spending 750+ hours on real estate activities, which reclassifies losses as non-passive.

I also cherish spending quality time with my wonderful fiancée, Miranda.I can’t wait to connect with all of you!

Yes, if anything its easier since no residential restrictions. savvy participants.Harder because you have to know how to present a property, typically have to spend on chase costs prior to assigning.

Most of these links will also be low-quality, as most link builders take the path of least resistance and buy links.It's really hard to build links and no agency is going to spend the time is takes to do it right, as the return is just not there for them unless you're paying ~$1,000+ per link.

I don't spend a lot of energy on worrying about that.

The only time it gets dicey is when its the ultra rich because yes they can spend the $ to keep it hidden. 

The ONLY reason to invest in real estate syndications rather than REITS is better return.  2- if you decide syndications are better for you,  spend due diligence on vetting the syndicator - eliminate any that do not have the experience, verifiable track record, or investment philosophy you want.  

Oh yeah.......depending on how trashed the place is, you can spend an easy $5-10k on demo , hauling and clean-up.

This would give some confidence that the property that you spend time and money vetting actually will be auctioned off. 

Stop hanging out with your deadbeat buddies who spend all day drinking, talking sports, and otherwise wasting away.
