Another avenue people seem to be exploring is buying businesses.

To clarify, I have been studying real estate for several years, but have been otherwise engaged in operating  other businesses that my wife and I both own, both as CFO and CEO roles.

A good real estate accountant can save you thousands of dollars by leveraging entity selection and formation, tax deductions, cost segregations, bonus depreciation and tax planning.I recommend finding an accountant who specializes in real estate taxation, business taxation, financial planning and tax planning.You may want to consider working with your accountant remotely to expand your options.I would also recommend looking for a accountant willing to work with you throughout the year.

You would think they want more business but not really.

After I placed the 5 day notice on her front door, she text me the next and said she would pay the full amount so I told her to go to the bank and deposit it and she did so we are back in business.

This has been our primary business for well-over thirty (30) years, but in California ONLY.Few posters here are attorneys, let alone licensed to practice law in Hawaii.

We're probably not going to take the risk if we're busy agents to play that game.
