When people are trying to ascertain who wrote them, what I do, am I legitimate, can I perform, etc an answering service or personal assistant hasn't always produced the results I desired.

Any legitimate self-employed person can do this.

Not including the wasted time and effort to do it.I could also ask the mailman to get his RE License to legitimately get paid a referral fee.

I think that I could legitimately mentor and/or coach someone (or multiple someones).

If they are legitimate business expenses and you maintain the appropriate documentation, why leave money on the table?

I need to verify they are legitimate  as a company and also conceptually on this idea they are proposing.thanks for any feedback.

If the answers are no then it doesn't look legitimate.

I run into this all the time.I know plenty of chiropractors,doctors,cpa's etc. that write off a ton in the business and pay themselves very little.Used to you could go stated income and this wasn't a problem.Because of the abuse it ruined it for legitimate individuals not wanting to pay our government more taxes that officials abuse anyways.So people making a few hundred a year but only paying themselves 30k look poor on paper but really can afford the loan.These people aren't going to show an income statement and pay tens of thousands more in taxes just to appease a bankers requirements for income on a tax return.What they will do is wait and hope stated comes back.

I'm asking for legitimate educational reasons, because I was apparently mistaken on that point.Thanks!

While most land trust uses are legitimate-all scammers here use land trusts.
