"All you need to do is invest a recognized gain in a Qualified Opportunity Fund and elect to defer the tax on that gain."

How to recognize the good ones from the bad ones?

I have a credit score above 800 as well and my assets have proven to be good money makers, my next property in the spring will be my stopping ground for a while so I can build up a solid security fund (currently $8K - shooting for $30-$40K).

One of my properties market rate = $2600/year, and is more than my fire insurance.I have seen people get an adjuster out and if it's proven your property is above the flood plain, the requirement can be removed. 

It would be best if he calls the city and asks them to turn it in (although it is already on) in order to establish service for 2 reasons: (1) He's going to need to have the water on for the when the property gets inspected (banks won't loan unless everything is proven to be working) and (2) Right now the city could charge him with theft of water by turning the water back on himself (well, really the contractor did it but the city does not care). 

It has proven to be off in a number of areas.  

The rates have gone up and the mezz loans are harder to get approved for w/o prior proven experience in building. 

It's made me a fountain of surreal stories, but as this one unfolded, all I could do was recognize that I had been pulled into Crazyland again and just try to keep it together.

This seems crazy to me because people are supposed to be innocent until proven guilty, but I literally had a tenant in this situation last month.
