I would proceed with 'caution'... could the tenant have an alternative motive?

Also know that you really don't have to split the realtor savings with the buyer because their best alternative isn't much better.

Based on what you laid out, if you're going to DIY the 1065, you'll want to become familiar with maintaining 704(b) capital accounts and read about 704(c) property and the associated tax allocations.This isn't really something that's advisable DIYing, but if you're willing to put in all the research and reading, perhaps it is possible to get the 1065 materially correct.

The people who really know the most are us: workers, tradesmen, and veteran DIYers who have spent more time in these things under lousy conditions than anyone else.I have a number of tested ideas on how to increase the life of paper N95 respirators and how to teach people about how reusable respirators work, as well as how to hack filter designs for 3M reusable respirators and knock-off designs readily available through aliexpress.com, ebay, other websites.I want to to find a YouTube content creator who can turn those ideas into clear instructional material with good video editing, quality close-ups, and perhaps animation.

There are some alternatives though.

If any one has any alternative non qm lender or of like that they wouldnt mind sharing would be very much appreciated.
