I become a new Certificate of Occupy from the Housing City Department.The house was until May 2007 mismanaged and have a occupancy of under 50%.

I am of the opinion that some tasks are better left to the professionals with proper experience and certifications and a CPA is no different.The fact that you are asking this question should be a red flag that you need a CPA.If you are simply trying to avoid the costs of a CPA, it is my opinion that the costs of such a professional are paid for in the deductions you get and the mistakes you avoid rather than going at it alone.As for cost segregation, that is usually left for commercial properties and not single family or duplex units.

We also need a fool proof way of guaranteeing US Citizenship before registering for school, getting medical care, welfare, AFDC, WICA, etc...Maybe a legitimate Birth Certificate?!?

My appointment for the certification on my first property is next week - we applied 11 months ago.

This is a big week.The AC goes in today, the electric and plumbing will be finished and inspected this week.All goes well, the permits will be closed out and we will get the certificate of occupancy.  

Lot's of rural areas have well systems for DG's which can have certification issues post build until proper tests can be ran.I have some friends that are DG developers.

Make sure that even though you need to move fast that you still dot your i's and cross your t's to ensure that they are insured, reputable, and will provide you with a certificate of insurance.

That means an insurance certificate (an Accord form) directly from the insurance agency, dated within 30 days, and you named as a certificate holder.  

This seems a more appropriate section for me to ask if anyone knows of a buyers market for Tax Sale Certificates.  

For example, with a purchase price of $500,000, you will save $1,500 in closing costs.We also pay about $200 in other fees including credit report fee, flood certification and real estate tracking fee.Our origination fee is 1% of the loan amount and it is capped at $5,000.
