I love to feed people so a spontaneous lunch or breakfast at the job site is always a great treat :)

The first being that they are treated as rentals, the second that they are treated as hotels. 

I’m wondering if it’s best to treat the land as an investment property and lease it back to ourselves and our farm business.

I'm hoping to find someone that treats taxes like I do--be aggressive on tax decisions even if that increases the risk of audits slightly. 

This time my treat.

In her last 12 months, my in-laws lost over $6,000 in rent (unpaid or below market), almost $500 in unpaid utility bills, and cleaning/renovations were over $10,000.If market rate is $1,000 and you rent for $800, you'll end up with a tenant that can only afford $800 and they'll treat your property like it's only worth $800.

Treat it case by case cause depending on the investor they can invest in a D property if it right for them.

I wonder how lenders treat this? 

My accountants and I are currently reviewing whether it's best to claim the REP status this year due to business income being treated as ordinary income (and therefore subject to self-employment tax).I'll let you know what we decide and why!

You'd just be treating the symptom, not the problem.
