If I were in your shoes, I'd focus first on a learning to be a good agent: learn to run CMAs (comps), social media marketing strategy, the ins and outs of contracts, and work on building up a network of "go to" people for help when you don't know the answer. 

These would be items such as: mileage, items purchased, tools purchased to repair properties.As I said, you can deduct the items associated; however, you cannot deduct an hourly wage for yourself unless you feel like adding that to a Schedule C and making it subject to Social Security and Medicare.There are plenty of items deductible; however, just remember if you can't pay for it... it won't be deductible.

A social worker on the case may want work with you and be willing to send a social worker or foster parent/guardian to the home to claim some of the abandoned items for the children.

An agent that has the social graces, connections and experience to specialize in "luxury homes" usually won't pull anchor and move to NJ.....I'd think.

Which is like a business social security number.

I don't have any experience with these operators.Different planes for different missions.

Socializing with kids/grandkids. #2 was done by 88% -entertaining close friends. #6 was same vein- watching kids/grand kids play sports.I always read books with a pen.

Maslow said human needs can be prioritized: physiological, security, social, esteem, self-actualization.

Generally, to be eligible for an FHA loan, you must have a valid social security number and have lawful residency in the United States and be of a legal age to sign on a mortgage in your state.

If you can't carry yourself socially, you'll have a difficult time being really successful.
