Theres an article in the left column of this forum regarding Section 8:http://www.biggerpockets.com/section-8-hud.htmlI currently own 3 Section 8 properties.Generally speaking, Section 8 just makes sure the home is suitable for human life, and provides the money, all or in part, so that person(s) can live there.

And if you did, someone earned part of the rate that you paid.Condo hotels evolved an alternative to time-shares during the 1990’s and there are now 100’s of properties located throughout North America under brands including Hilton, Four Seasons, Clarion, and Ritz-Carlton.

:welcome: to BP.Where in S OR are you based?

However, our AGI is above $150,000 a year, and neither one of us is a real estate professional.Because of that, it looks like I would not be able to deduct any rental property loss against our regular income if I owned a rental property in the "normal way" (schedule E).My question is whether or not it is possible to get around this by forming either an LLC or an S-Corp.

I'm looking for people who do hard money lending (preferably no doc) I have a credit score in the mid 7's and steady income and am looking to do my first rehab in a few mths.

Time and leverage are what make real estate investing so powerful.Do the research...I have two clients that retired in their 30's...from their investment property.

I'd like to help the owners (middle 20's couple in process of divorce).
