Would you still engage in the REI venture if you loved it a lot less?

That said, Toth was specially allowed her expenses that were claimed as she was deemed currently operating.You should read 195 https://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/text/26/195"(c)Definitions For purposes of this section—(1)Start-up expenditures The term “start-up expenditure” means any amount—(A)paid or incurred in connection with—(i)investigating the creation or acquisition of an active trade or business, or(ii)creating an active trade or business, or(iii)any activity engaged in for profit and for the production of income before the day on which the active trade or business begins, in anticipation of such activity becoming an active trade or business, and(B)which, if paid or incurred in connection with the operation of an existing active trade or business (in the same field as the trade or business referred to in subparagraph (A)), would be allowable as a deduction for the taxable year in which paid or incurred.The term “start-up expenditure” does not include any amount with respect to which a deduction is allowable under section 163(a), 164, or 174."

I would say he's glad he took the 15 minutes to answer my questions and engage with me.

Why, well it is not just because of my rugged good looks and engaging personality.   

I’m listening to Bigger Pockets podcast, and try to engage in the Bigger Pockets online communities as well :)Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!!

People would be VERY reluctant to engage in certain kinds of activities.Guaranteed that two or three nights of that is more effective than ADT for THIS situation.Every drug dealer I know would "refuse to work under those harsh conditions."

Prior to that, with most servicers, you could have done some basic level of setting up your investor account with the servicer but it takes the AOM to prove your ownership and have them engage on a file level.At the time of funding the Seller should have alerted their servicing company to cut the loan off, in accordance with the contract, and expect a transfer. 

I love it when someone says this...Do you have 10 different engagements with these 10 different CPAs and lawyers? 

My guess is it will be pretty difficult to engage in either plan, but you'll need to confirm that with a lender and agent, and then ultimately your parents.

Social media can be effective if you can get your follower count up, which is not easy and happens by engaging with others and posting good content.
