They facilitate cooperation with the local government on permitting issues, organize pro-builder political action, keep a database of local subcontractors and host a bidding platform, and they put on the annual Tour of Homes which could be a good way to showcase your work when you get settled in here.

Made my last site one evening over a glass of wine...Hosting included, can get personalized email etc...They are huge so there are lots of third party add on's that are free or cheap for what they do...like booking appointments etc...

If you continually have these "circumstances" that convert your rental to a flip before you even had a chance to rent it out, the IRS will likely reverse all your flips over the course of the current and prior years, in the event of an audit.The OP should get with a qualified CPA to discuss possibility of tax savings with an S-Corp, but this may not be a magic bullet depending on a whole host of other factors.

Hi Alan,Quickbooks Pro self hosted.I found it to be a pain to self setup correctly despite what they claim, but once it's done, it's done.Best to have a CPA set it up (in my opinion), and your CPA might use a different product for taxes, so the tax lines may not need to be set up.I don't see the benefit of paying a monthly fee for them to host it either.If you are online with it, what does your CPA say the benefit of online renting vs ownership is?
