I questioned that when I read that but just figured I was just not yet aware of potential opportunities out there where you can get a bank loan for 90% of the cost (and pay PMI) or maybe bring in a partner or private investor to cover the other 10% of the 20% down payment to avoid PMI? 

However, there are some strategies regarding partnership shares between two spouses that may create a more beneficial tax situation with regard to income that's subject to SE tax- this is a more complex setup and should be done by a professional. 

Create a new, separate single member LLC to handle the residential transactions?

You could also contact one of the Chamber of Commerce to get their help for where you should locate and if he was aware of any future development that might effect you.  

I am aware of the tax benefits however like I may have mentioned, my next step in my investment adventure is to fix a house up and sell it in less than a year.  

They know bid request will be coming from you.I use a program created by a BP investor to analyze my deals called Rehabvaluator.  

That's pretty strong evidence they created a fantasy to escape your lease and no-pet policy.My response would be simple:Dear Tenant,You failed to provide any evidence of an unsafe situation in the home.

It would be great to have also the map of Europe on the "Events" Page in order to organise as well events in Germany. I know that some other people that are looking for real estate in this area are as well on Biggerpo...

It would be considered a war zone property.

I am concerned an attorney might try to talk him out of doing an owner-carry or create other closing difficulties.
