I manage over 100 STR and MTR properties (STR is not allowed currently for ADU's, but MTR is, and great way to maximize the income, unless you're using it for family or office purposes.)I recently constructed an ADU in the backyard of a property within the city from a detached garage.

As of 2015, the fee to file is $216.00, plus $8 for each additional party after the initial petitioner and defendant.

Also, my CPA filed the income as 'short-term capital gains', and after a bit of research i've seen that my income was suppose to be reported as standard income, or is that not a big deal?

Don’t let the tenant have a little Social security or part time job income…that makes these amounts even more!

I was able to increase my monthly income rate of $1800 to $2300.

Did incomes feel 16X?

Also, can I use the deductions from real estate to reduce my active income and income from the stock market?  

The goal is to make sure you have high income, good credit score and enough assests and reserves to keep moving towards the next deal and dont max out on your first deal meaning do not max out your debt to income ratio as it can affect your borrowing power to acquire the next one.

Additionally I would have 300k in equity.Naturally, a con for this would be having a partner.

Additionally, consider cards with no annual fees to keep costs down.
