U needed to be in the bizz IE full time Real estate bizz to take the deduction and it had to be new builds and you were the first one to put them in service. 

U contact them 2 months before and there is no motivation as you suggest.

U can have the receipt in yours and his name as well but this is how I have done it when I am giving money for auctions.

U get what you pay for.

Need some reliable contractors  , thats quick and wanting to build their profile. I  got a lot of homes in need of rehab , renovation .

Quote from @Chad U.: Quote from @Brittany P.: @Chris SeveneyYou had me laughing.

I agree with U if you had to stick to 6% these are not financially viable..

U did need to be in the bizz qualified and  it had to be new and you as buyer are the first person to put it into production..

Quote from @Chad U.: Quote from @Barry Clay: Relative beginner here, I put an offer on a 2nd lien for 14K non performing note in Florida.

my question is WHY U sound very successful today with your holdings.. why take on the risk of managing money for others and giving up 70 or 80% of the profit equity on deals you find .. do less deals and keep it all and have no liability to investors.
