Hey @Teddy Shonts, I currently live in Portsmouth, grew up near Derry, and actively invest in the Manchester area.

If you have 14 rentals in 14 separate LLCs, each property with its income and expenses is listed on Schedule E as if the LLCs did not exist.The Fix-and-Flip single-member, disregarded entity LLC is an active income business reported on Schedule C and your flip income is also subject to self-employment income taxes.  

As your primary residence, you should purchase the best house you can afford with your kids education and extra curricular activities in mind.Problem with SF public schools is the lottery system, but that's a whole other discussion.

Not being local, if you outbid these local guys, you likely over paid.....nothing is going to “slip through the cracks” in the active counties.

This I learned from the competition in Atlanta - the advantage of being the first offer in hand with excellent terms.Meanwhile, I had about a week before closing to perfect my budget and timeline while walking hordes of contractors through the house - bless my agent's heart - plumbers, electricians, roofers, painters, HVAC installers... at one point there were so many contractor vans and trucks that we stopped up the street.

Areas to stay away from are the pocket south of Cooper street and east of Broad st.

BeasleyI am not an active investor in the Scranton area but I know Parasole PM is a solid company. 

For agents that only do 1-2 transactions per year, it will take a long time to complete.In order to get the designation, an applicant must meet the following portfolio experience:-Three (3) or more qualifying activities totaling $30 million or more; or-Exactly ten (10) qualifying activities totaling $10 million or more; or-Twenty (20) qualifying activities with no dollar volume requirement.In general, designations don't increase business, they increase the level of competency.

There is a big difference between accounting manager and account manager; account manager doesn't imply someone with an accounting background.It's better to find someone overqualified than someone who doesn't know the difference between asset and liabilities and operating and finance activities.

Drive around Bonney road and the side streets that lead to vb Blvd.
