I met with a loan officer from a small local bank with only 6 branches.

I went to the office to tell manager what she was threatening to do. manager said she would evict her and that I could bid on the Mobile Home at auction if I wanted to buy back the Mobile Home.

Any tips or advices would be greatly appreciate.

Taxes, IRS, other factors may still hold, and truth is, I don't trust the government office to provide full color on title.

(I don’t recommend Quicken at all, the loan officer I dealt with with was extremely pushy and dishonest and refused to listen to what exactly I wanted and just tried to sell me the only product they offered so he wouldn’t lose his commission).

You could roll up a entity, and write off the office supplies or whatever you want to catalog it as, but the write off value on them books will likely be worth less than the cost to form the entity, documents, and tax filing cost.Once you have a working business, you can absolutely write off software, books, seminars, guru program, etc..

We have a office in Patterson NY I'm not opposed to hosting something but I would have to get a head count since its not a very big space..
