However, I have heard of one case where the lender required a "whole house" arsenic treatment system, which are about $2500-$3000 installed. 

@Bryan Brooks Many investors would welcome a cash flowing rental with tenants.Just be honest with the tenants prequalify prospects ,your tenants should only be bothered once or twice for a visual inspection and possibly a loan appraisal.Plenty if investors are looking for exactly what you have.Best of Luck!

If you purchased that property primarily for resale (fix n flip) then it does not qualify for 1031 treatment. 

@Jason RuelloAs said below, 5-10% of monthly rent should be allotted towards TRR (treatments, repairs, replacements).To get a more accurate number or capital expenditures, you can examine the age and state of major items of the house such as the roof, HVAC, water heater, etc.

Depends on how the foreign business is treated under US income tax law, and what treatment you elect under the check-the-box rules if the foreign entity is not a per se corporation for US income tax purposes.I strongly recommend you speak to your tax professional. 

For this reason, many self-employed, tax status traders do their trading through a wholly-owned corporate tax entity, either S or C (usually S), to open up retirement and health insurance planning opportunities.Second, you should talk to your tax professional about a Sec 475(f) election, and the interplay with the QBI deduction thereunder, taking into consideration Specified Service Business Treatment and phase-out limitations. 

The fact that REO properties are always AS-IS has nothing to do with the fact that many sellers of real estate are offering their property subject to inspections and negotiations on treatments, repairs, and replacement.   

Hello,I'm trying to wrap my head around the "refinance" part of the BRRRR strategy.It's hard for me to imagine how the refinancing part works without seeing visuals.

Updated all lighting throughout, paint, exterior and interior, cleaned up landscaping, added new sod and landscape lighting stained all decks, window treatments, kitchen hardware, updated furniture and excellent photos.

Luckily, the exterminator found no evidence of them in any other unit and it was only $980 for the guaranteed treatment.
