Typically furniture would be an asset depreciated over a number of years... but when you buy a dining room table from Goodwill for $35, is that something that could immediately be written off, or would it still be depreciated due to its category of being furniture.

There is a quote in the movie, Boiler Room.

@Michael Dang we’ve done that and there is some room to raise the rents.

Leaves no room for error at $800 per month rent.

My wife and I are coming up to the end of a two year lease on a property in Northern Virginia -- as we've been here, we've noticed that our kids have had persistent respiratory issues -- particularly our 10 month old son, who we took to the emergency room at 4 months old, with respiratory issues (we didn't think to check for mold at the time).As we've been in the house, the owner (who regularly cut out the property management company he had been working with), has mentioned that when he lived in the house, he had noticed 'pin hole leaks' in some of the pipes.. and when we pointed out a 1 inch diameter 'soft-spot' in the kitchen ceiling, he chalked it up to that. 

Unless you want to have room mates it seems the best you can do is just reduce your monthly housing expense, but to cancel it out or make it very low seems very difficult. 

From the lush green landscaped courtyards with water features, to the ample open-air dining spots and the intimate outdoor fire pit, Plant 51 is a hidden gem tucked away in the heart of Silicon Valley and downtown San Jose.Plant 51 is a secured building with secured parking.

I don't have much room to talk since I'm super new myself lol.

Assuming it's gonna be a small meet-up with < 10 people (I could be wrong tho), I guess a library study/reading room could be enough (need to book in advance).

I purchased a 5 BD/2 BA property in Baltimore last August and inherited two tenants who have been living in the property as a rooming house.
