Example: about 9 years ago there was a house sitting on the market near me for $100k.

for example when changing cabinets, addressing trim, door pulls. hot water tank replacement: place a pan under it.  

Generally your hours working at BP as a W-2 employee would not be part of RE professional hours unfortunately.For those who are RE professionals, gain on sale of rental real estate is still capital gains and still avoids self employment taxes just the same for those tho are not REPS so there is no downside to being a REP in the example you provided Scott. 

I try not to overdo it, but I also don't want to spend 30 minutes typing it fresh when it's literally asked every. single. day.

For example, laminate and tape it to the back of each bedroom door, inside the upper cabinet closest to the refrigerator, in the laundry room, etc.Finally, inspect and enforce.

If the legal balance is already at 60% LTV for example, would a seller expect a higher amount than the legal balance possibly?

For example, an M1-2/R6 pairing permits residential development following R6 zoning regulations.

.- Cash-for-Keys is another example of this!

It doesn’t appear it was his intention to pay them back anytime soon.And in the example I gave about the overleveraged Subto that went bad, and the “Solution” was to sell to avoid a foreclosure on a Due on Sale, few if any of the Subto students can bring in $43,000 to closing, so it’s likely the property would go to foreclosure and the gator lender in 2nd position would lose most if not all of their money.

This kind of stuff should only happen when you self-manage (or maybe hire someone who’s primarily a real estate agent not an PM.) and would be a good example of why I don’t.
