I will second @Linda WeygantShe is located in Colorado and was a BP podcast guest.In regards to your tax return - if you have an out of state business - you may be required to file a resident return in Colorado and a non-resident return in the states that your business transacts in.

The contract that I signed had a standard out clause stating that I had the right to cancel the contract “for any reason or no reason” so long as it’s within the 30 day DD period.

I own a duplex in the city of Cleveland and would like to know if I need to file a tax return with the City as well as the state.

$400 a pop for regular sizes is pretty standard with required trim and flashing.

I would have a gracious conversation with this person reminding them of the contractual arrangement for rent payments and hand them a Notice To Comply with your contract so it’s in writing - and in their file!   

IF you are doing cookie cutter, standard size and standard entry level price points AND you are doing quantity each year, then yes, the same or similar template is appropriate as part of your systems.

Is this standard while applying for an FHA loan to receive an up front mortgage insurance premium and then have t pay a monthly mortgage insurance premium?  

@Mohamed NagoorIn most cases, your LLC will not even file a separate tax return, making it simpler. 

@Sajan JivaCPA license is a state designation.From a tax perspective - a CPA who lives in NY is not breaking any laws or codes for filing a tax return or providing tax strategies to those who live outside of New York.from an audit perspective - A CPA may be limited in signing assurance/audit related documents to the state that he practices in.You should be eligible to write off the items you mentioned.

the standard is intent with no statutory holding period but most folks feel that more than a year is good unless justified by other circumstances.2.
