Here's what I did (note I'm not uber tech savy and I figured it out so I think everyone should be able to follow these steps):Go to your C driveClick on "Program files (x86)"On mine I had three folders "Pureleads", Highlightly" and "Perk Prize panel" Uninstall all of thoseProblem solvedAt the recommendation on my work IT guy I downloaded a program called "Revo Unistaller Pro" (free 30 day trial) it uninstalls, but also has a registry scan function that seeks out undeleted extras it leaves behind.

Find a good-looking but inexpensive tile for a FULL splash from counter to the bottom of the uppers.Then install under-the-cabinet lighting (at the front of the uppers) to highlight the splash.This will save you a bundle on the granite, and will still look amazing.

Some highlights (or lowlights) that the calculator does not consider - property is CURRENTLY VACANT and will require ~$300k of repairs/upgrades before lease-up...so BETWEEN 9 MONTHS to 1 YEAR of 100% VACANCY BEFORE LEASE-UP BEGINS. 

an article that highlights some of the 'hurdles' you will need to overcome when establishing your own brokerage...  

Here's an article that has helped me get a clearer sense of what's important to people that are running multifamily properties.It was written by someone who works at a tenant screening service, so they have a very good idea of the type of people that are applying for, searching for, and getting into multifamilies.What are your highlights from this piece?

I'm sure the article highlights the fact that you can get an owner-occupied loan on a 2-4 unit property (same rate/terms as if you were just buying a single family home to live in) so if you can qualify for what I assume will be a larger payment (more expensive purchase), I think you may find it worth it to 1) get more income coming in from multiple units and 2) you have your own private apartment to live in (not sharing a kitchen, etc. with roommates).Good luck!

@Alex Nelson    To highlight what @Eamonn McElroy explained, I recently deducted a laptop that a bought to use exclusively for my business.

How did you share a link with the relevant text in the article already highlighted?

I appreciate you highlighting the challenges and pitfalls of working in the trades.

Were there any legal challenges or differences you would highlight?
