As @Jim K. stated to many human elements come into play you cant control.. and its one reason I am so bullish these days on new construction its easier to manage costs and I don't have to compete with all the wanna be wholesalers out there..

I'm not concerned about the 90 day holding period as I am more interested in rehabbing and renting.This particular property was just listed, but we'll see if they are willing to play ball.

I am brand new to REI and I am looking to educate myself and learn as much as possible. 

My neighbor at a house I recently sold wanted me to cut down a tree that he felt was a danger to his property, conveniently he did this right after I called the cops on him for repeatedly parking in my driveway and refusing to move his vehicles...The previous owner mentioned to me that she had wanted to take the tree down but this same neighbor didn't want it taken down since his kids played around it.

I say why would I stop playing this real life game of Monopoly?

I’ve made the decision that I will do everything I can while in school towards building my brand as an investor and agent, I’ve decided I want to own and rent out a property at least by the time I graduate.

I am brand new to real estate investing and was hoping to bounce my situation off of some experienced investors.

I do enjoy the marketing work, but I don't see it as my long-term play. 

There are times where you should just play golf or sit on the beach. 

And judges like to borrow from existing case law that is similar to what they are deciding – it is both easier than reinventing the wheel and tends to appease their preference for consistency.Now could a judge decide to make up brand new law for deciding if rentals are a business for purposes of 162?
