I’m curious about my tax strategy for the 2016 tax return in progress and also interested in a referral to a very good CPA in the Seattle area with expertise in real estate investing.

The market bottomed in 2010 and has generally been on a recovery since. 

It seems to me that many of the investing programs-systems (pre-foreclosures, short sales, REOs, etc) were tailored for the time period 2008 - 2012 + or -, the timeline of the crash when foreclosures were at an all time high and during the "recovery" period when banks took control of the properties and then began to put them back out on the market to sell.

Otherwise, keep us posted as you make progress and I think that can further motivate folks.  

Keep the community apprised of your progress.  

One of my investors placed some property with them, but were unhappy with the lack of progress on vacancies and how he had to be involved in every decision.

Definitely doesn't sound like the MHP in in the Path of Progress which is always my primary concern.

Although the area relies heavily on the public sector, job recovery has been strong and the Kings have been in the process of building a new arena in the heart of the city.

However the way the market continues to move if you select some key areas in the path of progress I think it would work. 

Keep us updated on your progress.
