Good catch – I had to phone a friend (accountant) and he pointed me to a pretty good web page (http://thinkholsinger.com/is-canceled-debt-taxable/) that explains it this way:If you use the cash method of accounting, then you do not realize income from the cancellation of debt if the payment of the debt would have been a deductible expense.For example, in 2014, you obtain accounting services for your farm using credit.

View it as a Web page.

We can not simply give you a list of things to do as this is a business you are entering into that is very complex.It is best that you sit down and study all information available to you on this web site and then possibly return for clarification.

I am interested to learn more about the process to become my own General Contractor in Philadelphia for investment rehabs which are single family or two-family units that I own, and would like to get your advice and opinions on some of the choices involved.Per the L&I web site, I understand that I should register as Home Improvement Contractor and have a Commercial Activity License:Contractor Requirements All work must be performed by a licensed Philadelphia Contractor with the following exceptionsWork may be performed by an owner residing on the premises of an existing one or two family dwelling.Work may be performed on an existing one or two family dwelling by a registered PA Home Improvement Contractor maintaining a Philadelphia Commercial Activity License.So in this case, I wouldn't need to be a full-fledged licensed Philadelphia Contractor, correct?

@Craig Bellot, Is this the Jack Cohane on Black Rock Turnpike in Fairfield?

@Bryan McKeen I've never seen a "standard" property management contract and given the liability involved in owning and managing properties, I'd even be reluctant to share the ones I've used.I've seen longer management agreements and shorter ones, and off the top of my head I'm not sure which were better or worse.You can probably find a few on the web for free or low cost, my recommendation would be to get those, and spend some time comparing them and seeing what they have in common, and what some have but others don't.Then armed with that information, approach an attorney and describe what you're looking for in an agreement.

The windows I am looking for need to be black as white windows will not go with the exterior of the building.

(I do a little bit of it all: systems administration, Linux, devops, web stuff, networking, some programming, etc.)

The “black” mold which can be very toxic to some people, is mold which grows on certain chemicals which are not typically present in a residential home,  it does not refer to the color of mold.
