I was able to get a private loan which I used to purchase the house then I used my own money to rehab the house.

I'm having a hard time trying to find a bank that I can open a business account with online.

I should have elaborated in how the utilities are handled.Septic is the only private utility, and thus is my responsibility.

I am seeing a roommate who does not have pets.Cozy furnished 1 bedroom with living room and kitchen privileges, your own private bath and a shared refrigerator.

Oh I agree with you if that rent will be a business income to live on vs just an unrealized gain.

I've closed a bunch of loans with Kiavi, Roc, and a few with ABL, I also closed with RCN, Easy Street, Lima One, and some smaller private lenders.I've come to the conclusion that the experience at the lender is not globally good or globally bad. 

When you say "we," are you speaking about your business or your personal tax returns, or does your business flow into your personal returns because you file as a sole proprietor?  

I do not have the capital right now to do so but if i sold my business then i would! 

Also, you don’t need a business license just to look at properties, but if you buy a bigger property, like a multi-family unit, you might need a certificate of occupancy, depending on the local rules.For business trips, most expenses can be deductible, but if it’s part personal and part business, you can only deduct the business portion.
