Hi everyone,I recently purchased my first property, a duplex in Cleveland, OH.  

You can start deducting depreciation and other expenses from the date the property is "placed in service", which is not the same thing as the date someone first books it. 

Hi everyone,My name is Robert and I'm a first-time flipper in Simpsonville, SC.

Credit requirements may be the same but the. income requirement is different.If you invest in single-family homes for rentals, once you have built up your portfolio and have your positive cash-flowing assets maybe a % of the portfolio can be set aside for below-market rents.My opinion- You have to make $ first so that you are in the position to give back.

My thought is that because they ask for no deposit and the first month free that they will place a renter for cheap really quick and then disappear before ever making a payment to you.

It's great you are taking action to get you first house hack!

I have the capital for a down payment and holding costs for a year but am struggling to find a lender who does not require a first-position lien on the home (the seller does not wish to subordinate his lien position).It has occurred to me to seek a partner-investor who would profit share with me if I was responsible for renovations, as I’m an experienced and licensed Residential Contractor.

Hi everyone,I'm considering a potential property for my first investment project or a house hack.

Oh, and make sure you have Workers Comp on the guys you hire to help unload.Ahahaha, after they got done realizing what was going on I never heard another peep.....Got my first license in '83, all these years I never realized I was a hostage-taking price-gouger......Damn.

I used to like to meet clients in the field first and see if I'd also like to work with them.
