Don't stop asking until you find the right person for your situation.

I wanted to know if there was any reliable in person seminars for real estate investmenting in Fairfield county Connecticut..any suggestions?

I also called Maricopa county office and they mentioned that ususally whenever legal service is done, the documents are sent to the address of the person/business first even if they are out of state,  before they are sent to the statutory agent.

I'm gonna play a small hand and see if I can get a counter offer accepted for the 2 empty lots next to my personal home.

I personally have used Chase business checking and their credit cards that offer 15-18 months 0 APR.

Rent the other side of the duplex to a person you then employ as a full-time (or part-time) nanny.

The IRA funds would not be able to be combined with other personal funds as in your note above. 

I got the current owners (person who is selling me the property) blessing to post the house for rent right now with a move in date of August 1st if I wanted to. 

They are saying if a person lived on the property for more than 14 days contiguously then their damages can't be considered vandalism.

Would I be able to deduct depreciation against my personal w2 income without having rental income for the year?
