I wouldn't fix a faucet there without a gun on my person.

Often the money is the investor relations person who communicates with investors  On the Spark team I’m the deal finder and communicator.

I personally invest here for both the cash flow and appreciation.

If you want a "reasonably" fast way to straighten that out, you have to "connect" by clicking the name of the person you wish to speak to.

And it depends on the person, but yeah, most will be over 10% these days. 

@Hannah Potter Here are the things that many CPAs support their clients with:Understanding tax impact of short-term vs. long-term vs. flip before you buyWhich entity structure is best for goals and investment property typeTax and compliance on LLC or S-CorpHow to transfer property out of personal name into LLC (hard to buy 1st through entity)Ways to optimize taxes throughout the yearHow best to set up accounting to track income and expenses (doing this late is a mess)Feedback on property management systems, accounting systems. systems, etcEstimated payments to avoid penaltiesKnowing when to file and getting things in on timeMaybe a few things I missed, but this is the high-level ….. if you can get answers to the above questions on your own, plan, and file your own taxes then you can avoid the expense of a CPA.

Regarding taxes, I believe LLCs are pass-through entities, and you will just claim the income on your personal tax returns.

@Quiche LynnI think your confusing the term noteThe note is a promissory note - meaning the document that she signed stating she will pay this person this much money.What it sounds like is she wants to send a settlement offer to try and renegotiate the deal?

As of right now me, my partner , and one other person is moving in but, I need to find a way to fill in the other 2 bedrooms.

No "headaches" except for risk of near total loss of principle unless I put more money in...I'll take the risk of a project that I need to complete personally in exchange for a near-perfect risk/reward profile and complete understanding of the investment.
