If i don't pay anything for the audit defense, then I do not have a deduction.Furthermore, if the CPA made an error that resulted in additional tax and interest/penalties, then I would pay the extra tax but expect the CPA to cover the interest/penalties.

The contractors names and numbers are just something you will have to build through trial and error.  

If DM is to be used, the script coded for this, will extract owner mailing addresses, populate the mailing labels and send them to the printer.All of these scripts will be coded to alert me of any errors, by email.

Thank you for taking the time out of your day to read my rookie introduction!

Renard Miller - I would chalk this up to a rookie mistake.

As to the buyers at your meet up stating this, they are rookie dreamers too.

People said I paid too much, that I should have found a better deal in a better area, and that I made a lot of rookie mistakes.

I shared the calculator if anyone would like to tell me what other errors I've made.https://www.biggerpockets.com/calculators/shared/1...

Yesterday in my morning emails I saw this lovely message for VRBO:Needless to say I have no attempt of getting the guests info.Under "Take Action" among options I could declare this as an error and asked the "standards violation team" to look into it.Didn't hear until mid day, when I decided to call the customer service.Spent almost an hour with the rep whose conclusion was that I have a language in my listing which in a nutshell asks my guests to avoid an instant booking without telling me a bit about themselves: Who they are, where they come from, purpose of visit, etc.  

@Trevor Lohman, sorry for spelling error.
