*Or is the only way to achieve this is to provide additional value added activities other than the typical cottage appeal/attractions?

If I directly hold rental properties under the 401k, and only use this account for operating activities, I need to be able to send out wires for property earnest money and down payments, and also provide the account number to my property manager if I need to make a contribution or if they give me monthly rental distributions.

I've signed up for meetups and I'm actively building my network with like-minded individuals. 

In July two of them  had problems deemed by airbnb to be de activated.

Please keep in mind under section 469 you have "active income" and "passive income".

You’ve got lake activities in the summer, foliage drives in the fall, skiing, snowmobiling, ice fishing in winter, and of course great hiking year round.

However from a lending point of view we've had some requests from some CT, VA, GA, NC, investors so we're actively consider licensure in these areas.

Thanks, John, I actually joined UpstateCreia last year, but haven't been really active yet, I am signed up for the September monthly meeting, so maybe I will see you there!

They may assign the activity 'dealer' status and tax it at a higher rate.

Welcome to the active side of BP!
