I'm sure they are taking advantage of people.

Hey @Connor O'Brien - There is a list that CHA releases each year that states the maximum rent they will pay in certain chicago areas based on bed and bath counts. 

Also, many PadSplit properties have bedrooms that are created via flex walls that wouldn't meet the definition of a bedroom in an appraisal, so many PadSplit owners may think their property is worth a certain a mount based on a bed count that's not valid. 

Combine that with insurance raising rates not just for dropping licensee count, but also to cover increased lawsuit risks.

But if you’re just getting started and haven’t done any investing yet, those costs might not count as business deductions.Hope this clears things up!

My question for the group is would my hours as a contractor also count twoards the needed 750 hours?

Quote from @Pat Aboukhaled: Chris, that’s a great question, and it’s one that tends to trip people up more often than you’d think.

They actively try to recruit people in mine.

Since you recently purchased, yours was reassessed at todays values and theirs are still working off assessments from years ago (possibly) and the people you bought from likely had an old assessment as well.

When I need something done fast, I can count on them to squeeze me in.Keep in mind that if you need the cheapest option for your deal to pencil, you probably should not be buying that deal.
