With that said, get materials ordered early - especially for kitchens and baths.

However, if you or your spouse can meet the Real Estate Professional Status (REPS) requirements by working over your w2 hours in real estate and materially participating, the rental losses could offset your active income.

  - 10% on material  from Lowe’s/HomeDepot. - Capital partner that can assist with cash as needed. - potential equity in primary residence Asks/Needs to achieve goals. - In need of assistance formulating a concrete plan to achieve goals.- Assistance putting the knowledge and resources together to close next deal. - Looking to attend real estate meetups and expand network. - Locating and putting together the right  team that’s needed.-  Joining communities and connecting with others on a similar path.
