@Vidit Maini Starting your business as an LLC taxed as a C corporation offers flexibility but involves double taxation unless you elect S corp status, allowing profits to pass through to your personal return.For tax savings, deduct startup costs, track business mileage or vehicle expenses, and consider a home office deduction.

@Tayvion Payton to get a better understanding of the loan products, it's best to have a conversation with a commercial loan officer at a local community bank or credit union.On commercial, the number one rule is a deal meeting their DSCR loan covenant, which is typically 1.2 to 1.25. 

So I contacted the tax collectors office and was told there was a legal loophole and that since the building had been owned by a non-profit for part of the year it would receive tax exempt status for the full year.

Consultants, inspectors, and mentorsProperty managersAssistantsBookkeepers, accountants, and attorneysLandlords if you rent your office spaceYour business partners if you paid them (except if they were strictly lenders)Disclaimer about wholesalers: it is a controversial issue, with some of my colleagues claiming that wholesalers do not need 1099s.

Dumb question, but is asking a police officer to swing by just to assess if there is weed (quick smell test) be too much/a violation of anything/asking for trouble?

There you will be asked your criteria and then after answering a few questions you will be matched with 3-5 agents or loan officers in your area.

Just curious... what’s your ultimate goal for that office space..are you looking to boost resale value, or is it more about having a functional retreat above the garage?

You can then tell the security office to disregard any alarms the rest of the night if needed.They run off of batteries and need to replace about every 3 years.
