I posted this in a different thread, but I'll add it here as well:If your business made payments to an independent contractor of $600 or more during the course of the year, you are required to issue a form 1099.

It has been my dream for years to become independent and grow my own business in investing.

In my experience around my area, the credit unions and small independent banks always have more attractive terms.

I'm an independent agent I currently work with over 75 carriers to help my clients protect themselves from financial losses. 

It's just a independent box store.

@Robert OmbresNearly all insurance carriers publish a "restricted breed list" - these days, regardless of the Association's policy, if you have a breed on this list, it puts the association (you) at risk.

Independence MO is the first city in the Metro to propose this ordinace and if it passes, will move on to other metro cities.

@John Valley Amanda Han's book that is published by BiggerPockets is a great place to start, as well as the books by NOLO (search on Amazon for NOLO Real Estate books).  

Without getting into the whole spiel, about a year ago my business partner @Tommy Mejia and I decided that we wanted to become financially independent and decided RE would be the best way for us to reach this goal.

How should I go about doing a valuation on the property independently from him to see if the deal makes sense?
