The Escrow company says that it doesn’t qualify as my primary residence because I have not lived there for two years and that I would have to show a loss on the house or I will be stuck paying 3 1/3 percent of the sales price of the home.

My understanding is that if I’m a passive investor that already has the $25k maximum loss (or whatever it is right now) deduction, that the solar tax credit would be pushed out to future years.  

If that house was worth $170k and it jumped to $250k, those games will be given back, so the amount you will lose was in that property won't be $30k to $50k on a daily cycle, so the $12k you make in a year will be blown apart by the loss inequities you will sustain.

The buyers in the two cases I'm thinking about would have never been approved by any regulatory agency and those huge losses would have never happened. 

Two different clients, both military, both landlords, both with sufficiently high incomes (>$150K when filing jointly with spouse) that their passive losses from real estate investing are suspended.

Because we're frequently on the go, we eat out regularly at fast-food and family restaurants such as Chili's, Panera Bread, and Chick-fil-A.

We are not responsible for items damaged by the failure of the appliances or the supply of water/gas/power to those appliances, including but not limited to the loss of food.

Hey @Jill AddisonThanks for that advice and food for thought.

You will lose the money that you pay on the tax lien, but you will get back all of your overage as well as the interest that was due to you thereby minimizing any loss.  

Can a tenant be sued SUCCESSFULLY for loss of income if they left behind damage that requires time and money to repair and prevents the apartment from being rented to new tenants?
