HI Nikolay, I have an article on what self employed individuals can do to make sure they are prepared to obtain financing in the coming year but I suppose it may be too late if you've already filed 2013 returns.There are still ways to structure your transaction to get you approved.

(Side note -- does anyone know how to file a complaint against an appraiser?)

You can have an attorney do it for you or you can file yourself at www.sunbiz.org.

If you have a property that has recently been acquired and has no tax returns filed then the general rule is 75% of gross rents minus PITIA.The exception to the rule is if you rapidly acquired multiple properties in the recent year and those properties were different that what you were used to managing such as a purchase of industrial real estate when you were a SFR investor.

Title companies will often have this type of data.You can also search your local recorder for Notice of Default filings or the court for Lis Pendens, which are the initial steps for foreclosure on a property.

I sent her a 10 day notice to quit and I am getting ready to file with the city next week.
