@Nancy Curran I instruct my tenants when they move in that "dirt and damage does not equate to wear and tear".  

Hello,I am a young entrepreneur looking to get into real estate wholesaling in the Atlanta, Ga area.

This niche involves risk (from structural issues to the caprice of getting a permit in a small town) so the more I can absorb from others - investors, builders, subs, lenders, retail entrepreneurs, etc. - the more likely I'll be to keep at least part of my shirt.

The instructions for schedule E should help clarify what's 'repair' and what's an 'upgrade'.

They also are stating they will not pay last months rent and instructed me to use their security deposit, which is boldy denied in the lease they signed.

We agreed to an addendum later.So a few months gone by and in the last few weeks, the new dishwasher and washer are in, no glitches, he even hired my recommended handyman to do the install, who at the same time with my instructions relocated the junction box, as well as changed out the existing hot water valve to a dual valve instead of the messy adapter tees and connectors. 

This is the chapter you want, it has step by step instructions on how to do a development deal in QB, and a flip works exactly the same. 

By the way, most successful entrepreneurs only have a high school education or went to college but never finished.

Basically, you follow instructions on the New Jersey government website, pay the $125 and you get some type of certificate.

So I thought that amount of money would be worth three days of instruction for someone that is new.
