I'm looking to network and expand my business and bring value to yours.

Is it difficult finding actual businesses to buy? 

My goal is to generate income since I am closing my business which is my 9-5.

We take that to mean activities that are integral to the operation of the business.

Thanks for the responses everyone, the confusing part to me was if I use the deductions against active income year 1 since STR's are an active business, but then switch to LTR's year 2 which correct me if I'm wrong can't count against active income- if this in some way has a disadvantage with recapture, etc. since the STR business would no longer exist

Their website shows a downtown Seattle address that is likely a condo and not a business office.

It is a growing area that is right on Highway 32 so it is continuing to have new businesses and companies moving into the area.

They are not in the business of owning property.

For me, I knew I wanted to work on building out a listing business for luxury homes so I got to work cold calling luxury home owners and building my brand as a luxury agent.

I'm a full time IT specialist AND have my own home inspection business in Southern CO.
