For your cash flow focused investors, I would assume Detroit, Cincinnati, Memphis, and Kansas City, as well as your market of Indianapolis.It is looking like we'll get 1 cut, maybe 2, from the Federal Reserve next month.

We also charge an underwriting fee which includes reviewing the entire file, cost for appraisals and credit checks etcYou also can thank your state or federal government for creating additional layers such as licensing for business loans which to me is stupid.

For example:initial consultationreview of your prior tax returns for possible mistakessorting through and organizing your data, including receipts and spreadsheetscorrecting and reconciling your booksfinding and correcting inconsistencies and missing datafiling your federal and state extensionsoptimizing your tax return with alternative tax positionsreview/walk-through of this year's completed tax returnsamending your tax return if something ends up missing or incorrectanswering your ongoing technical questionsshort- and long-term tax planningreviewing and replying to the IRS or state lettersdefending you against the IRS or state auditsproviding financial statements or other data to lenders and other 3rd partiesassistance with loan applicationshandling your payroll and payroll reportingpreparing 1099s/1098s and other informational formsassistance with government loans and grantsI think it's obvious that the price of your CPA service will heavily depend on what is included.

Also, you don’t need  $360k if the loan gets called; with a principal loan balance of $240k it would be more like $250k.Whether you do a wrap, sub to, or lease option when dealing with a owner occupant / consumer there are many legal “traps” to navigate because of consumer protection laws at a state level, and CFPB and Dodd Frank at the Federal level.  

The agreement should last 4-5 days.If I don't like that home, and I think I want to engage a buyer agent for more in depth services over a longer period of time, then I will entertain other buyer representation agreements, but I will not agree to over 2%, which is the maximum recommended by the Consumer Federation of America.To be fair, if my needs required my buyer agent to show me 30+ homes, or preview them since I am out of town, or something else that took an extraordinary amount of the agent's time, I would consider more than 2%.

Cost Segregation is a commonly used strategic tax planning tool that allows companies and individuals who have constructed, purchased, expanded or remodeled any kind of real estate to increase cash flow by accelerating depreciation deductions which can defer state and federal income taxes and increase cash flow.When a property is purchased, not only does it include a building structure, but it also includes all its interior and exterior components.

@Sara Valentine know your state and local requirements in addition to federal.

Then they suddenly told me my taxable brokerage account doesn't count as reserves but they won't let me sell and move assets to a checking account because they won't be seasoned for 60 days.  

With regards to the interest, where do the Applicable Federal Rates (AFR) come into play?

You don't want to discriminate in any way against a federally protected class.
