A deal of this size requires engaging 2 people: an accountant and an attorney.

Thus, those who engage in these activities should get a tax break on related expenses.

I don't plan on engaging an agent I did a similar (not exactly) transaction 20 years ago and recall it wasn't too hard.  

That entails both money and time, and she may not have had the opportunity to expend either within 5 days of the divorce.Were I in your shoes, I'd engage an attorney to draft the quit claim deed, inform the ex to contact the attorney's office and arrange a time for her to go sign, and that would be that. 

The few things that haven't are slowly getting extended before end of day.On the contrary, if a practitioner is slammed or very busy on April 15th I'd be concerned that he/she has poor engagement management and/or time management skills...I'm done with this thread... 

In the meantime, continue to network with local investors and engage BP.

The key question is are the investors actively engaged in managing the property? 

The bar is too distracting for me--I liked it better when we used to have a room at Caribou Coffee. ...seemed to be more engaging. 

I'm not a tax professional, but either a) a whole lot of my clients are engaged in tax fraud or b) your CPA is wrong or miscommunicating. 

Use some of the available tools out there to run high level analysis and then once you have a short list you can start engaging property managers, do more manual research on the existing booking platforms and/or pay for more expensive data to fine tune your analysis.Best of luck!
