But that is rare in today's market with high cost to build

Looking for something cost effective for tub wall surrounds in apartment units with as little seams as possible.

Hi Tax masters,I have a question about the county mortgage tax when purchasing a property.I'm quoting a mortgage from 3 lenders for a small multi-family in Bushwick/Ridgewood area (Brooklyn NY), and one of them estimated the county mortgage tax in their quote when the other 2 didn't.If anyone has some knowledges to share with this, I would appreciate it.

My understanding is if you inherit a property you get a step up in cost basis. 

There are a couple of builders selling new construction for under $300k. with 20% down and closing costs you could have a brand new HOME.Best of luck

I think I was indeed leaving in the owner occupied estimated rate.

What else would you do to mitigate the risk of environmental contamination that would cost more than the land is worth.Note that I am not concerned about minor contaminations that can be fixed for under $25,000.

I read that companies offering a checkbook IRA LLC set up package cost more than that set up by an(my) attorney or CPA. 

But given our high cost city and sky rocketing interest rates, early and simple analysis of any property has so far resulted in negative cash flow. 

This is hands down one of the best investments I've made in my own education (for contrast: my BS and doctorate cost me $250K, and for RE, apart from books, I recently spent $18K on a syndication coach and $5K on multifamily strategy with Christian & Cody) -- and her course was a fraction of these costs at only $2.5K (Soli: you should up your prices, you are worth it)!
