All do something special.

There's the idea floating around that much of the reason REI and the stock market have done so well this round is because of the money that was pumped into the system during the GFC, and it's not because there was anything special about the fundamentals of any particular asset class. 

No special friends or favors from contactors, just applying what I learned from BP and talking to other investors.

“We have been getting a lot of questions about [section] 1031 exchanges, and we are working on FAQs that will help explain what the relief is there,” Jennifer Auchterlonie, special counsel to the IRS associate chief counsel (procedure and administration), said April 14 on a webinar hosted by the American Bar Association Section of Taxation.According to Tom Greenaway of KPMG LLP, some taxpayers are confused about how the expanded relief provided April 9 in Notice 2020-23, 2020-18 IRB 1, applies to the deadlines for complying with the 45-day identification period and 180-day exchange period required under section 1031(a)(3) and Rev.

Currently, I work for a project management firm that specializes in owners representation for Hotel Developers.

The bill would require the court, if it determines that the tenant’s inability to stay current on the rent is the result of increased costs in household necessities or decreased household earnings attributable to the COVID-19 virus, to make an order for the tenant to remain in possession, to reduce the rent for the property by 25% for the next year, and to require the tenant to make monthly payments to the landlord beginning in the next calendar month in accordance with certain terms.
