A 60 yr old investor with a $30 mil net worth is in a completely different position than a 30 yr old investor with a $25k net worth--a "good deal" for one might be a terrible deal for the other.In real estate, there are no simple rules that you can always follow in all circumstances because RE involves so many moving pieces...you have to make a list of all of the relevant factors for a deal, and make a decision based on that, and your own circumstances.

I need help from tax pro but I can't afford a lot.If anyone out there can help me figure out this piece with a small fee, please let me know.Thanks,Jane.
