Of course banks were closed but they could have paid Saturday or any number of other days the bank was open.So I email them and ask that if they have paid to disregard my email but if they have not, since rent was now late (I only accept rent deposited in a business checking account) to include the $25 late fee ($15 general late fee + $10 per day late).

What is the IRS definition of a flip
6 September 2016 | 4 replies
This might include things like intent at the time of purchase, time held, whether a property was marketed for sale, frequency of such transactions, whether you are personally flipping houses separate from the plan, etc.If your IRA is flipping properties on a regular basis, then you will surely want to speak with your licensed tax advisor to be sure you understand the ramifications of UBIT taxation, and whether this tax on the gains from flipping will still leave your IRA with better returns than other options, or if you might need to look at different strategies for the IRA such as long term rentals or hard money lending.

That price included pumping, chemically treating, and ultimately collapsing the septic tank, directional boring 3/4 of the way around the house (.39 acre lot), two cleanouts installed, and he even removed a damaged cast iron stack pipe which had cracked in my foundation and updated it to PVC at no charge.I gave the overpriced $4,000 water equipment to a friend who had suffered from hard water and haven't had an issue with my new city water/sewer setup yet.Contact me if you'd like to chat further.

That included getting a team in place, educating myself here on BP and other books, actively looking at the market to identify where I wanted to invest, determining my strategy, realizing there was a flaw in my plan, finding a private investor, and finding a deal that met my criteria.
