Of course a member shouldn't conduct business with another member without doing their due diligence, but there is no reason why that can't be done privately.I personally know two women that were stalked because of their open membership on an internet forum.

Seller said "He is not required to disclose water damage repair done"

The seller responded that since the issue was repaired and he believes there is no ongoing problem, he did not think it needed to be disclosed.When I asked him to extend the inspection period so I could follow up with the repair company and conduct my own inspection, he declined.I disagree with this interpretation.

Section 179 Question for rental business
4 January 2025 | 11 replies
But the rental too does have to meet the "active conduct of a trade or business" threshold, which does mean you wouldn't qualify to use section 179 if you have a rental that is managed entirely by someone else and you aren't at least overseeing it and making decisions about the management of it.I mostly disagree with the reply suggesting that you need to have an LLC to take the section 179 deduction.
