I wasn't a jerk to them but it was pretty clear to them I'd be calling them at least every other day to check in on the status of rent or their move out. 

Hey Guys, I'm still learning how to use bigger pockets social media but I have two people replied to my topic about being a newbie on this website so I don't know if this topic is going to both of you guys or one person.

I now know that the tenant was living solely off social security with a total income of $2360 per month, and probably couldn't afford the property from day one anyway - (rental was 800 pm).

I look forward to meeting you at the next local real estate social event.  

@Jeffrey Estrella  my father partnered with his attorney for 40 years ... no legal fee's attorney was an equity partner. as an attorney and broker I would think you know enough to do plenty of good business is there some very specfic specialty that you want further knowledge of you probably know the nuts and bolts maybe what your missing is how to market and use social media etc. those youngsters on this site could be a nice fit for you.. they lack the real experience and capital to afford an attorney etc. but they are wize bangs on the computer and know all about all those new modern things..

We know from dealing with it the bank (1st lien holder) is MIA and has not been contactable throughout our foreclosure, tax lien foreclosure, or the quite title suit the new owner brought up after buying it.Now a year later I call the county asking why we have not been issues the funds(we where told it would take up to a year) as the only lien holder to respond(Florida has great online records where you can check) in the time allowed, And I get this response:"I just wanted to let you know the status of your surplus claim.

I had already did some digging into his social media presence to see if he had listed our property with his wholesales over the weekend, and found nothing.  

Others can chime in, but the simple answer to the real estate pro question is you must spend at least 750 hour/yr on real estate work and, if you you have another job, 50%+ of your working hours on the real estate.Without RE pro status you can deduct all depreciation and expenses against all income for your real estate holdings, but not against your husband's regular income if AGI is above $150k.Cheers,Jeff 

I am assuming you are looking for  a US bank that would fund  foreign nationals.As far as I know none will, unless the borrower has a social security number or at the least an ITIN.

Btw, that's an excellent question...and one you should probably ask your shareholders...Personally, I invest in private equity in both real estate and the technology spaces, and I'd want nothing to do with a company that felt it had no social responsibility whatsoever.
