Also, Mike has a great blog about how to get a seller on the phone by mailing him a cell phone and scheduling a time to call.

They probably use lawyers as the Registered Agents and they have signatory power.They will also claim privilege if the tax man comes knocking.If a judge pushes it, they will simply say they never asked what state you talked to them from and you only have a cell phone. 

Some ones that I've added, based on experience:Tenants are not to remove or disable smoke detectors, and are to test them periodically and promptly report issues.Tenants are not to put grease, fat, or fibrous items in the garbage disposal.No objects except toilet paper are to be flushed down the toilet - even items labelled "flushable."

So things like your cell phone bill if you're taking biz calls, office supplies to draft leases, legal fees for the property, property maintenance supplies, repairs, insurance, utilities, etc.

Mortgage interest, property taxes, insurance, property management, maintenance, cap ex and I've even been told I can deduct around half my cell phone bill since I use it for REI too.

Give him my cell.
