you should be able to deduct the losses w/ut being a professional unless you make above a certain amount ($125k for married's).and, yes, any not deducted this year can be carried forward to the next year.I am not an expert but you should really consider using a CPA experienced in real estate since it appears you do not understand how certain tax laws operate. it'd be worth the $ spent.

So far, the best local help I have been able to find is the Utah Valley REI. 

Currently, my situation is as follows:- moved from CA to UT for work.- I have 4 months left on my apartment lease.- I am looking to move closer to Salt Lake City.

Hi I'm Shane Clevenger and I'm starting the journey into re investments. I wanted to see if their is anyone in the Salt Lake City area who would be willing to mentor me?

Thank you

I just did a Google search for "Davis County Utah Public Records Search" and I didn't find the county's records available online.

I've read that both Boise, ID and Salt Lake City, UT are good areas to invest in.My question is, are there any people here who invest in those areas, and if so, do you use a turn key company or go it on your own?

So I've heard that terms are where it's at with seller financing b ut I just don't see a way with these price points in his head that you could offer within 20% of what he wants and have some sort of deal.Advice?
