If it's purely/mainly from extra money you've put into it, then that hardly counts, right?

I’m looking at becoming a part time realtor along with mainly property management.

I’ve come to realize that real estate assignments and double closings are not their primary business and my guess is maybe they’re swamped with whatever their main focus is.

I reached out to one of my main contacts and he said that these programs no longer exist, sorry!

The main reason I decided not to do it myself, for now at least, is my reluctance to leave my full-time job.

The main goal of the tax was to prevent people from buying large lots of land, subdividing, and selling.And yes, it doesn't apply if it's your primary home, expires after 7 years, and is pro-rated less and less throughout those seven years.Hope that helps,- Tom

I would say something along the line of “I wanted to speak with you and let you know that I am going to rent the property and that I have no intention of selling it anytime soon.

Worst part is the court is intentionally enabling him.

In some commercial and most industrial verbal negotiations almost always happen before a non binding letter of intent is drafted. 

@Tony Han I’m still not decided on the whole turnkey vs. build-a-team on the ground approach... its actually one of the main questions I have right now.
