We've stopped creating our emails and posting them on our website because there's so few deals in town that we spend more time saying "sorry, it's not available anymore" than actually selling deals.  It's really only been like that here for the last 12 months or so.

We're getting really close to telling people that we're not accepting new people on our buyer's list.  There's a couple of reasons, but the big ones are that most seem to be brand new with unrealistic expectations for what they're getting into or they're old-timers still looking for grand slams when singles and doubles are all the exist anymore.

I've done it dozens of times.  You'll have to do a double closing, because the seller (bank) contracts on HUBZU listings always contain "no assignment" language.

I don't get why other agents don't answer calls from repeat customers, or at least shoot a text right away with a planned call back time. We do, however, get TONS of junk solicitation calls because every brokerage, MLS, Board, etc. sells our info. It's a defense mechanism for most of us to not answer all calls from number we don't recognize.

2nd what Paul said.  Here's the link:  https://bsportal.sos.state.oh.us/(S(uvvadrdhu0he2y...))/Default.aspx

After that, you'll need to get an EIN:  https://sa.www4.irs.gov/modiein/individual/index.j...

Entire process should take less than 15 minutes.

I'm in Cincinnati.  Want to make sure I don't violate the marketing/advertising rules on BP... I'm a licensed agent and wholesaler, as well as a builder and custom remodeler.

 That's interesting logic, but I think it's clearly outside the bounds of the Act.  Paying down a mortgage isn't the same as purchasing the house.  By your logic, a principal payment on the mortgage would always be tax deductible and it's clearly not.

 Nope.  That was 2017.

You'd have to show you used the money to make substantial improvements to your home AND be under a total of $750k between your 1st and HELOC.

Has anyone addressed the fact that HELOC interest is no longer tax deductible?

 I'm both a licensed agent and a wholesaler.  Successful at both (top 1% nationally for agents).  The wholesaling business is much more profitable.
