@Huso Akaratovic , I believe you are referring to Publication 523 of the IRS code.

Full disclosure: I own two properties in Memphis and they are both cash-flowing. 

Once you have knocked down what is above the roof and working in the attic, you can no longer use a full size sledge hammer if you like having ceilings. 

This has entitled me to using a VA loan for a home, and I plan on utilizing it to it’s full extent.

PIF them if you call each month (Pay in full).Good news is when you go to do a Refi, you can plan ahead and pay the cards off a month and a half before so they report the zero balance, your score goes up immediately.Also, two cards is not enough,  4-6 cards start helping your credit. 

Lifelong Queens resident here and I was also invited to and attended the official Amazon NYC announcement at the Governor’s office on Tuesday - mind you, this was not a huge venue open to the general public; small room on the 38th Floor of his office with 50-60 movers and shakers intimately involved in the deal coming together plus the always entertaining New York press corps. - ProofHappy to share some perspective.

I work full-time, wife is stay-at-home with our 2 boys, but she is very keen to start hustling again, and she'd be great at the AirBnB business.So I'm just airing some thoughts and concerns on how to go about this endeavor the smart way.

For reference, I have spent time as a Property Manager, Realtor, and Construction Manager in my career so I have a fairly high comfort level - don't need a full hand-hold. 

As I have a full time job I'm looking to become a silent partner in a larger investment.

It was a full gut job so I had to do the repairs before I can move in.
