Over the whole year we have had higher listings than the previous year (the last several years have had lower and lower inventory each year).

These were the only two times in last ~5 years that vehicle had passed the first camera per the license plate scanner.Seems likely she took the packages.  

Lastly; NUT-UP!

Hey Jimmy,Thanks for the call last week and your interest in working together. 

I actually had an initial phone call with the co-host that ended up lasting an hour because he kept giving me tips and local knowledge.

Her deployment (not sure the deployment is short term or long term) was last month and asked me to allow her son and grand children to stay and she will continue to pay the rent.

i sold one last year that was supposed to be a BRRRR but didn't pencil. 

Problem is only "RE pros" get to do it.There are 3 income classifications in the US - Active, Portfolio, and PassiveActive income is income derived from your job, or normal trade or business.Portfolio income is derived from bank instruments - stocks, bonds, etc.Passive income is income earned from investments.Active losses can wipe out both passive and portfolio income, but it doesn't work the other way around.Portfolio (capital) losses are limited to $3,000 annually.Passive losses can only be offset by passive gains.Real estate rental income by its nature is deemed passive per IRC Sec 469One way to get around it is to become a pro - spend more than 750 hours or 1/2 your time in real estate.But most folks aren't real estate pros.

Last year I would have said buy and hold.

I’m about to close my first deal and am eager to network with other investors, agents, wholesalers, lenders, and cool folks as I continue my journey. sup Hey James, Cool last name by the way
