These two bodies share the responsibilities for implementing and enforcing the existing licensing laws.

Even a bond with the state wouldn't be that big of a deal.Whatever, I'd think the best way to get changes is to acknowledge the problems, work with them, find simpler solutions and implement standardized practices.

You can pay $300-500 for tax return guidance and prep, but you are going to get someone who will say just set up an LLC and be done with it (additional $7K in tax) or pay $1,500 for your business and personal return and you will get some advice like I have given and they will help implement your plan.You do get what you pay for.Joe

So I have an excellent strategy that I use for my personal blog that I am going to be implementing in my RE business as soon as I get my license.

That is very good advice that I try to implement throughout my everyday life and am glad that you shared that!

This is not something that can be done independently by a CPA.There may also be state registration fees or taxes for the LLC entity.IRA custodians do not establish the LLC entity as they are prohibited by rule from providing legal services (they are a reporting layer for the IRA).Find a reputable firm that can educate you on the process, implement the structure and provide you with guidance along the way as you invest.This is a great way to diversify your retirement savings into real estate.

HUD implements the Section 8 voucher choice program via a HAP Contract.

Wondering if anyone could share some successful strategies that they have implemented.  

On paper, you may not end up with taxable income- I'd suggest seeing a professional.This is where a good CPA is worth the cost- they will be able to make sure you're getting every deduction and mitigating tax as well as implementing a good strategy. 

I appreciate hearing ideas even if they may be difficult or impractical to implement.
