As a sales professional, you'll find that one of the greatest benefits of investing in real estate is tax saving -- I'm not a CPA and can't advise on this, but I've personally saved a fortune through REP status and cost segregation. 

Furthermore, while speaking to a Pennymac Rep., they said we do not qualify for a HELOC since our property/duplex is considered a multi-family, which I was not aware was a problem. 

I remember I spent a week in Vegas with one of our sales reps trying to shake up some interest for our new excavator line.

If you are able to get REPS status, that would help tremendously.

*(When viewing gallery in dashboard, the listing will look unchanged, it's not until doing a private search that you'll see the new look of your listing) When that e-mail came Feb. 27th, a VRBO rep told me to keep making complaints from my dashboard using the 'Help-Feedback' links.

I called my client rep, but got an auto-reply that she won't be back until 7+ days without leaving any contact.

I am a W-2 employee.Would this meet the qualifications for the 750 hours for REPS?

Instead, I began working as a DSCR/hard money lender and I get daily reps in evaluating deals.

I received a call back from Rep.

Do not get a rep for agreeing then backing out, you will get " black balled " Good luck PS if the extra 5- 8k kills the deal it was not a deal to begin with :)
