So based on his suggestion we didnt want to move forward unless the price was significantly cut to cover repairs and mold removal.

Hey Guys (Didnt know where to post this)Just curious how much you guys pay or would pay for a Landsscape company to cut grass and take care of the outside of the property.

I had a few questions on what I can claim...1- I had to buy a new truck...my car wasnt cutting it and my SUV wasnt big enough either so I got a big truck2-lawyer fees--closings, advice, contracts etc3-insurance on all my properties4- home inspections5- utility bills ie trash water gas electhanks in advance

When he saw the condition I was in when coming to Florida, he cut it off.

Why invest in one if you will be cut off from it.

Not much yard to maintain, but over all the property is very clean cut; inside and out.Did you look at any other properties at all?

Should I pay a flat rat of $250-$500, or should I do a percentage of my cut...(5-10%)?

DIL is usually in order for the bank to cut it's losses before the home ever goes to sale.

Personally, I'd bring in a partner to do the shortsale and pay them a cut of the deal for it.

My question (amoung many) is whether or not I am able to claim non resident and get a cut on the tax.
