For example, I own two large multifamily buildings, and when I tried to get a tax exemption for them, I had different experiences.

Hopefully, you're looking to do this on a Class A property, or at least Class B.We've turned down Class C rent-by-room opportunities in the past because in our experience/opinion, you'll need someone that can visit the property weekly to not only keep an eye on what's going on, but also to "keep the peace" between residents.

I've never heard of a licensed Realtor practicing property management treating anyone this way in Columbus.

I am not calling them a scam, but based on my experience up to this point, they are not in a position right now to provide the customer experience necessary for the associated 50k fee to join.

The risk of "piercing the veil" applies more to LLCs when personal and business finances are not properly separated, not necessarily to individual landlords renting a portion of their home.A more practical approach is ensuring you have a solid lease agreement, sufficient liability insurance (including an umbrella policy), and properly reporting rental income and deductions on your tax return (Schedule E).

Hi Community, has anyone had experience with at home daycares?

Thank you.Good morning, Joel - What you are describing is a very common practice on the private lending side of the financing industry.

Lenders typically require a resume for the GC involved in the borrower's project to assess their qualifications.When it comes to a GC getting funding for their own projects, while some lenders will take your experience as a GC or builder into consideration, most primarily look at your track record as a borrower on title when determining approval and pricing.That said, if a lender deems your experience sufficient, they may allow you to act as the primary GC on your own project instead of requiring you to hire a more experienced GC. 

Definitely  cant put a price on learning experiences.
