I find door knocking is so off-putting to people these days that it would be self-defeating for me to even try it.

If you do transfer and cross your fingers they don't call the note, you may still have issues comingling corporate assets (rent) paying personal debt (mortgage) which kind of defeats the purpose.A less talked about approach to asset protection is good insurance.

I watched the youtube and QB tutorials etc and many of them say dont connect your bank accts but that defeats the purpose if I have to put them in manually myself.

I’m feeling defeated and wondering if now is the right time to buy.

Why would they build a truck to look like that when they are trying to defeat it?

I feel like that's a self-defeating situation for the fed.

Is there a way to defeat some of that capital gain without rolling those funds into another investment?

4) REP status does not necessarily increase the chance of audits, but I wouldn't be surprised if the IRS has 'checks' in their system looking for those who are high W-2 earners in companies they do not own, and are also claiming the status.For what it's worth the DIF formula used by the IRS for examination is undefeated against Freedom of Information Act attempts.It's definitely a secret.And the IRS has definitely disallowed amounts related to real estate activities based on the amount of income from other sources, and often does under the Code and Regs of 183 for defeating deductions for real estate."

Capital One Spark "Business" will report to your "personal" credit profile which literally defeats the real advantage of a REAL business credit card like Amex Business or Citi Business  ...meaning not screwing up your utilization ratio if you go over 30% up 100% max out on your business card.  

Yeah, kinda defeats the purpose of a tankless, but that can be necessary.
