Started at 7 this morning and finished last coat at 3:30 . 

Everyone has agreed that the home should be given or granted to my gf since weve lived there with her mom for the last ten years.

I think my solution would be to get an export from the utility companies of the last 12 months bills.

I ended up purchasing the condo and just finished renovating it over the last week.

Last I spoke with a mortgage person they said I either needed experience in investor new construction or it had to be SF for construction.

The rule technically is "2 out of the last 5 years," so in theory you could live in it for 2 years, rent it out for another 2.5 years, and then when you sell you would still be covered under this same exception.I am very passionate about real estate and would be happy to answer any other questions you might have.

The Phoenix rental market is tight, we have zero vacancies of properties we manage and have been able to raise rents almost across the board the last few years.Why do you think it's taking time to rent your units?

You might be surprised at the number of times I had to explain to a seller their responsibility to reimburse a title insurer for a loss. 

Because if we can take deprecation losses from our rentals, we can use that loss to offset our other active income (from being a broker for example). 

Many find themselves at a loss because of depreciation.
