what I find very unique right now Ned is the amount of HML or private money companies led by large hedgefunds investing in these HML companies have driven these private rates down to 10% apr or less.. so to only have about a 4% spread between bank money and HML is quite unique in my experience over the decades.. other than the high interest mid 80s anomaly.. 

(Another month by the time we make it to the closing table).

The kitchen would only allow for a small dining table.

That being said, real estate does offer some unique tax planning options.

@Jason Dillard That's on the table.

The way I see it, unless they start tracing your IP address to your computer's location and triangulating that way, OR AirBNB starts forcing you to provide a unique identifier like a SS# to open a new account and then somehow verifying it (You can still have friends and family have accounts this way) and using a blend of strategies to make sure you aren't gaming the system, it will be very hard for them to enforce this for those who are motivated to get around it...

All parties have to be notified but we typically do that right at the closing table to cover any unethical thoughts on the sellers part. 

I walk properties all the time and on the table I see 5, 6, 13, letts/postcards on the table scattered yet they call us and end up selling to us.So if you are serious about investing.

Louisiana is very unique.
