I'll send you my link so you can be in my downline. :) just kidding I don't work at eXp.

Or hang out at places where people with money go, i.e. nice hotel bars, nice restaurants, country clubs, etc.

It will just be more of an explicit part of the price negotiation when buying a property.

Anything that can be hung on, swung from, or ripped off the wall should be removed.

However, if you plan on sticking the the loan and you do not anticipate rate would drop below 5.7% then option B would be the ideal route.

I'll be in town for a week in October and would love to meet face-to-face over lunch or dinner if anyone is available.Looking forward to connecting!

Possible a dry wall access, could be cased, whatever requires minimum work. 

Well I invested to help a friend put a camper on it and we kind of talked about trying to go into business together. 

My tenants are great (well, until today).

I have not heard of an extension as of yet.Your 100 hours is related to material participation for STR not the real estate professional status, they are two separate items but in a way can be connected (kinda).I'm not sure what you mean by "sell it for no bonus depreciation recapture" because you are required to take depreciation, if you don't the IRS should calculate your tax as if you did.Your head is in the right place and I wish you luck but would highly recommend consulting with a tax professional before proceeding if this is your plan.Best of luck Dennis!
