@Greg StrunakA good real estate accountant can save you thousands of dollars by leveraging entity selection and formation, tax deductions, cost segregations, bonus depreciation and tax planning.I recommend finding an accountant who specializes in real estate taxation, business taxation, financial planning and tax planning.You may want to consider working with your accountant remotely to expand your options.I would also recommend looking for a accountant willing to work with you throughout the year.

Find someone local or who specializes in working with investors.

Based out of Manassas, VA here :) The 750-hour rule is part of the IRS guidelines for qualifying as a real estate professional under Section 469 of the Internal Revenue Code.

I have Section 8 rentals in my portfolio but I do recommend connecting with a property manager who specializes in Section 8 rentals - they'll know all the specific requirements, inspections, and paperwork needed. 

Hey Jason,I'm a real estate broker specializing in multi family property and also an investor. 

I believe there may be special exemptions around a job relocation or other extenuating circumstances.

On the other hand, a detailed quote with a higher total may offer more transparency and reduce the risk of surprises as the project progresses.I specialize in consulting services for situations like this, where I help clients evaluate contractor quotes, ensure transparency, and navigate the renovation process with confidence.

Many investors use wholesalers or real estate agents who specialize in investment properties, or they directly target owners with distressed properties.5.

I had an electrician run wires in an attic, telling me up front that the house won't be up to codes, he's only doing the one or two things I asked.

If you are self-employed with no full-time employees you may wish to consider opening a Solo 401k instead of a self-directed IRA as it has several advantages over an IRA LLC such as much higher contribution limits, direct checkbook control (i.e. no need to have the account at a speciality trust company), ability to take a 401k loan, exclusion from unrelated debt finance income tax with respect to investment in real estate acquired with non-recourse financing, etc.Can I contribute to both a Solo 401k and SDIRA?
