Both ate very good for networking and education.

2.Also, when we came up to stay in the location (Ocean City, Maryland) to look for houses and stayed in hotels and ate out can we deduct that as well in "travel" category?

It was great there for a bit but so many people came in and ate up the inventory, prices soared and now you would be lucky to find much where the numbers work out.

As a newbie, this basically ate up all of my reserves and was a pretty stressful time.

I finally got a better paying job and just saved every dollar I could (ate PBJs every day for years to help save) and put about 23k down on my first deal.

And surely you wouldnt like my contract which follows Maryland law to a tee.

If you had the opportunity to inspect the kitchen of every restaurant before you ate there, or the chance to ensure (for instance) that the hospital disposed of its bio waste properly before you were treated there, then it wouldn't be necessary for the government to inspect those places.

Buenos Dias! 

That along with various fines that existed before I took over ate through a lot of my capital that I had allocated.

What state ate you located in?
