If the payment(s) reported on the credit report is less than the threshold payment calculation above, in order to count the lower payment, the loan file must contain a statement from the student loan servicer that reflects the actual loan terms and payment information for each student loan(s).

Quote from @Jason Taken: did you actually have a secured lien?

While I secured the initial financing for the property, I have two other partners/groupings (a total of 6 people) that are contributing to the closing. 

Once you have them served and file the papers with the court, the court will assign a First Tier Hearing - basically a mediation session where hopefully you are able to work out a move out date certain (with the tenant paying use and occupancy).

Some opt for private lending to avoid this tax and still have investments secured by RE.   

But if do a BRRRR from far away that's risky too, without a really good and trustworthy team in place and lots of checks and balances (security cameras, someone local to check on your property) and the ARV and refinance aspect can be challenging.  

Don't wrongfully evict, avoid violating any fair housing laws, don't be a slumlord, screen tenants well, avoid security deposit disputes, be professional with your tenants and take care of your properties.

If you love your job, make good money from your job, have very little time, and have cash want to park into a secure real estate asset, turnkey is the way to go.If you are opposite of that and want to dive into real estate investing operations, then fixed upper and BRRR.

We are closing on our first rental next week and have been looking for a CPA to help with the tax filing.  

Below are some important things for you to be mindful when you have to file a partnership tax return1) A partnership return generates a form K-1 that each investor will need to complete his / her tax return.Will the accountant be able to complete the tax return by April 5th to give the investor/partner enough time to file his individual return?
