I'm giving the seller all the information he needs to know to make a fully informed decision, and if it would be illegal for me to buy a property under those circumstances, it may put me at an unfair disadvantage if the seller really understands the circumstances and really wants to sell under those circumstances.You can argue that the seller is getting taken advantage of, but that may not be the case.

There is supposed to be lots and lots of tax tips as well.I appreciate the fact that there is lots of "meat", per the comment above.

I'm halfway to my ten which will probably take another 5-7 years for me at the slow *** rate I'm going. 

I can slap down the cash per duplex plus the initial land purchase but that is a lot for me at this point or i can find a lender to allow that amount to do an operation that big.    2.

Sow when my brokerage issues a 1099 to me at the end of the year for let’s say 60k, it won’t raise any flags for me to only report 42k on my schedule C? 

Or, feel free to email me at [email protected].

This will save me at least $4K in soil report costs. 

But something about cold calling my first list of property owners and trying to get them to sell to me at a cheap price rattles me.  

On that one, the listing agent told me at the time of contract that the house had termites.

I tell tenants to call me at the office first.
