A couple are1) Are you familiar with tax laws that are specific to real estate - real estate professional status, depreciation, cost segregation study, 1031 exchange, QOF, qualified business income deduction.

I am interested in creating a sustainable development of land in the North East of Brazil as an investment for myself, but also as a way of protecting these territories from aggressive other foreign companies who are coming in just wanting to turn a profit at any environmental and social cost.

Would love to meet anyone in this area to exchange experience in analyzing deals and finding markets.

Full disclosure = I manage properties in Tulum, Mexico. 90% of the rental units here are owned by foreigner investors.

Cable And InternetFor larger properties, there are certain cable and internet providers that may be willing to provide a hefty payment in exchange for the exclusive rights to offer their services in the community.

I’ll be doing a 1031 Exchange in June and am looking for a properties prices ~$1M.

As @Conner Olsen mentions, I'd simultaneously look into partnering with someone more advanced and provide capital in exchange for learning the ropes.

Many say 8582, some say 8582AMT, and a few are 1116 or 1116AMT (looks like they are related to foreign sources), NJ-BUS-2 (NJ forms), and there is one line item for 8995.  

Long story short, not only did I commit the rookie mistake of paying for the remaining work in advance to the sum of $2.2k of which the work was never finished and no refund provided because of a sob story I won’t delve into.This gentleman was a foreigner who was legal and had a social security card for working purposes.

The ideal referral would be someone you have personally worked with who is local to the Greater Los Angeles area, who knows how to handle accounting for income properties, and preferably also has experience with 1031 exchanges.
