I hope this helps even a little, and hang in there!!

Don't rely on your personal income to pay this back - it's a big mistake.2.

Hello All,I have found a few posts on this topic but still hoping for a bit of clarification in regard to this specific situation.I currently have a tenant that is wanting his good friend who is ill to move in with him so that he can take care of him.

This is not a "real estate rental income" activity as defined by the IRS, so whether you are a REP or not, you can take this benefit.All of this is separate from a QOZ Investment, which would require you to first recognize a capital gain from another source (say a stock sale), invest that gain, hold it in a Corporate or Partnership structure (likely partnership), meeting the substantial improvement qualifications of being a QOZB, and then yes, you get to avoid the depreciation recapture at the end of the 10 year hold period, at least for the portion of your investment attributable to the original gain that you invested in the project. 

So, now almost two years later, I've had to close my flipping business because I can not seem to recover from this loss. 

I'd like to do fix and flips full time but don't quite have the capital to do this from the start.

He asked for my help or advice in how to get onboarded as a vendor for professional property managers so I thought I'd ask here.

Not only will this help you save on additional costs, but it will also provide you with valuable knowledge and experience for any future endeavors.

I would like this information to be clearly visible on the owner portal, including the payout, our commission, etc.Thank you in advance for your feedback and experiences.

Decent purchase price to rent ratioSome of the areas I'm looking into are:HaywardSan LeandroOakleyConcordPleasant HillBrentwoodTracyMantecaTurlockModestoSacramentoMy concern about some of the areas specifically in the Central Valley (often recommended here on BP) like Fresno, Turlock, etc, is that looking at numbers the appreciation doesn't seem to meet the mark for me (purchase price to rent ratio is decent, but equity isn't very good), so I'm generally focused more on the SF Bay Area.Any recommendations on cities or areas would be extremely helpful.
