I have a few properties that have increased 30% in the last year), and of course the tax savings + the debt paydown from the federal government or tenant.Overall returns are insane: I'm a buy & hold investor.

If you simply ask the tenant to resign the lease and then there were issues I could see them claiming deception to coerce a lease signing, so at minimum I'd likely shar with them there was a recent court ruling and you need to revise to make your lease legal.That said even if your lease is void I believe the tenancy would be governed by State law.

Government is nailing real estate investorsto the wall in a bold move to control financial crimes.BOI is yet another Federal program, “Beneficial Ownership Information.”The BOI program, a key tool in the fight against financial crimes, requires every business to document it’s 'Beneficial Owners.’
