One bit of advice is scaling too fast if the market changes and factors out of your control (interest rates, job cuts, rent decline, job loss) have enough in reserves to weather those storms.

The concern he had and to be fair he said he needed to research it (i am just doing some of my own) was that since most of the work and hours will be conducted in LLC now and the LLC does not own the property would that create any issues with my ability to file a schedule C and claim depreciation and losses, etc?  

CPI measures general inflation for consumers for major individual expenses such as food, gas, shelter, and other basics.

I’ve just accepted it over the years and come to the conclusion that the nominal amount I spend on legitimate business meals is ok to take as a loss.

You could very well have turnover, loss of income and tIght return next year.

However, I believe that another bank acquired Northfolk Bank recently, resulting in the loss of my checking account and credit history.

Good schools, good internet, good food, good prices.

How do I track my material hours on my investment property in order to take depreciated losses against my W2 income.What is the best way to track my hours to make sure I get to 100 hours and more then anyone other person involved in the STR?

Any and all advice is welcome. thanks in advanceToo late now, but always try to find out who your insurer works with when losses are covered. 

The end result is inevitably going to be a huge amount of properties you won't be able to sell or rent without taking losses, potentially very large.
