Hey @Hee Um - We have a small investor-focused brokerage here in Chicago...there is little to no training so often times it makes sense for some new agents to go to a larger brokerage to get a foundation.Either way I am happy to chat and steer you in the right direction if that would help.

The $200 cleaning fee goes directly to housekeeper who is phenomenal.  

I've seen some people mentioning workers comp but if I'm only hiring 1099 subs that wouldn't apply correct?

So get your 401k and HSA and other self directed accounts ready.

I agree, the core principles of bookkeeping and accounting apply to any accounting software platform if the bookkeeper knows their stuff. 

Hi @Eddy Wehbe, brokers are doing the work that you don't want and, in a lot of cases, can't do (think of connecting you to branches that understand and are able to help investors, providing mortgage products that normally wouldn't be offered, getting rates that direct banks are not giving).

Happy to point you in the right direction so we expand your notes (and your pockets!)

That means each payment you make goes directly to the principal loan (since there is no interest), so over 30 years you'll pay $110K.  

Can anyone point me in the right direction or let me know if they are raising for one? 

The loss is still captured and carried forward and can be applied if/when your MAGI falls below $150k.
