Please shoot me an email with your personal emails, if you'd like, so we can engage a little more privately if need be.

If you completed true flips, then you engaged in dealer transactions that are typically reported on Schedule C if you did these in your own name as a sole proprietor. 

So if you have engaged the only contractor who will jack up the price just because they can, you will lose for sure.

All "quality of life" offenses (drinking in public, public urination, aggressive panhandling, graffiti, vandalism, trespassing, loitering for the purpose of engaging in drug sales etc.)

I strongly advise that you always engage your own trusted and thoroughly vetted vendors to reduce potential liabilities.

@Ira BloomfieldThe IRS prohibits any direct or indirect transactions or benefit between an IRA/Solo 401(k) and a disqualified person.You are a disqualified person to your Solo 401(k).If your Solo 401(k) is being used to salvage a transaction that you have engaged in personally, could the IRS not view that as an indirect benefit? 

People might engage in more relaxed and meaningful interactions by stepping back and relieving the pressure.● Reflection and Learning: With the luxury of time, it becomes possible to reflect on past experiences and identify the factors that contribute to stress.

Following this thread and hoping for some good engagement as I'm also in the boat where I'm not trying to replace my W2 income or retire.

I would not engage this tenant anymore as it sounds like you have done all you can correctly but talking with them further might give ammo against you.

*Still not going to engage the troll who doesn't know what he's talking about!
