Thank youStaton As long as it was advertised and available to rent you can deduct it.The only exception is if you had personal use above 14 days in that year.

Personally I wouldn't use Zillow, I can only imagine they want to introduce a future fee for the service.

I had called Audible and ASKED if the CD was available...which means I want the info ON THE CD...and the person I spoke to just said the CD was not available with the audio version...so why not tell me that the information is available ON THE AUDIBLE WEBSITE?

The extra interest is small and increases our APR by about 1%.To do this, our lending attorney provided custom clauses in our loan documents, including a deferred payment section, an interest-on-interest clause, a balloon payment disclosure, and a few others.

Personally, I believe there are much better ways to invest in RE, even with limited knowledge or bandwidth. 

Or even riskier: a commercial balloon loan with a high interest rate and a personal guarantee that is due IN FULL after 5 years!

Hi Ashely,For a cash out refinance, I haven't seen one that can do better than 75% LTV personally.

You are not the first person to bring this up.

It seems like a rural setting is about the only place a person could place one. 

How do I track my material hours on my investment property in order to take depreciated losses against my W2 income.What is the best way to track my hours to make sure I get to 100 hours and more then anyone other person involved in the STR?
