Here is a thought, if you take cash show the income  on your taxes .I carry a umbrella I have seen cons and pros on both .For a small shop umbrella seems to be the right fit.

If the same name pops up two or three times, you've found the person you're looking for.These agents are really worth their weight in gold when it comes to generating leads in mature communitiues.

Is there a recapture of  depreciation if you are simply carrying the cost basis/depreciation over to the purchased property(s)?

(Propoer Ins, underwritten by Lloyds seems like the gold standard here.)I would also be willing to put down 2 months rent as a deposit (max allowed in MD, I believe, and double the standard). 

You research mortgage foreclosures and arrange the buys on the day of the sheriff's sale in the Gold Room at the Allegheny County Courthouse.

If you’re the only offer after 4 months and you (the owner) have been stuck with 4 months worth of carrying costs, well, fatigue can set in.  

Back then Shaw was sketchy and had nightly gun fire, and today it's hip filled with 20 somethings carrying around yoga mats and starring into their phones.

If you don’t want to get carried away with sanding the clear coat off, grab a can of XIM Fusion Bonder Primer (expensive but good $50 + per Gal). 

@Carrie Albertson it sounds like you are getting insurance on an LLC-owned property.

Hey Meredith, Personally, I love the pro membership - I use the calculators daily and I think they are worth their weight in gold.
