You will need to qualify as "real estate professional to do so" Which simply put is spending 750 hours in a real property trade or business, and more time in that line of work then anything else.

well in note funds your going to have clunkers its just the nature of the business.. having been in the HML space since the mid 80s personally NO ONE bat's 100 .

Which in turn will bring plenty of other investors and general business to the market.

And last summer I made around 10k each property each month in busy season.

I think more and more Realtors will leave the business, which is great for those of us willing to put in the work and navigate the changes so we can still help people buy homes.

Have you reached out to local businesses, schools, hospitals, etc.?

If it's a property that we intend to hold and the market data shows that the average property sold above the list price within the last 6 months, we may go above the list, but we will not go above the target we've set for our business. 

I have a US mailing address with a family member and a digital mailbox for business accounts.

This will be my 14th yr in the business and I have client's who are primarily investing from out of the state and country. 

Keep in mind, you can only host open houses for listings within your brokerage. and if you go to other agent's open houses and start soliciting the patrons for business, the agent/host will not take kindly to it :)
