If they make claims about rehab costs, make them provide WRITTEN bids from contractors.

If you sell one of your rentals, you don't want the IRS claiming it was a flip and trying to tax you accordingly.

As far as I know a Canadian investor who is receiving income from a property in the US will need to file a US tax return claiming that income.  

As long as you don't own another property I doubt anyone can claim you don't live there, regardless of the short-term rental stuff.

there's one google review that claims they bought 7 properties through them but says company has changed and they wouldn't buy again

#1) You can do a Quit Claim transfer into your LLC and if the bank find out about this they have the option to call the loan due.

If not then this should be done,, and that mutual roommate termination agreement usually states the security deposit remains on the apartment. and by signing it she relinquishes any claim.  

@Daniel Patton you should quit claim to your personal name then start a cash out refi process.

Then you could claim the rest of the flips each year as dividends & just pay regular income tax (~30-35%).

It's just that you cannot blanket claim that unions are a force of good.
