A property that cheap may have some serious defect.

If you loved your house and you think somebody else will love your house, you'll find a good tenant.Here's some advice as a recent plunger:All you need to understand landlording are these forums and this book:https://store.nolo.com/products/the-california-landlords-law-book-lbrt.htmlBuy it, read it cover to cover, underline the important stuff, and refer to it often the first few months.Also, though it's time-consuming, show your house to potential applicants one at a time by appointment.

Hi @Shane Smith -- this is something your CPA will be able to walk you through very simply, based on your business structure.The basic thing to understand here is this:  there are two different "events" involved in what you are describing:  Purchase and Taxes/Filing/Deducting/etcAs far as the real estate goes, in order to purchase the property in the business name you would simply put your business name in the "buyer" space in the contract and sign on behalf of the business, and then use a loan product compatible with the business.Again, this is the purchase piece and then the tax piece comes later.
