Thank you so much for the good ideas. My only concern, if my family's taxes, outside of REI, need to be in NJ and NY, can a remote CPA still do them (does s/he need state specific knowledge). Thank you

Hello Everyone,

Can you please recommend a reasonably priced CPA who specializes in RE and is also good at business expenses (law business). I live in NJ. Thank  you very much!

Dear BP family,

I have a question about REI expense deductions. If I don't yet own investment RE, but do have expenses related to looking for and acquiring RE, as well as RE educational expenses, can they be deducted? Are those considered RE expenses or training for new profession?

If the latter and let’s say I end up buying an investment property, are expenses incurred while looking for this property considered tax deductible? 

Thank you!

Hi Dan.  And why is it the worst move? Also, what if the area where one lives is unaffordable and doesn’t cash flow well.  Let’s say you can drive an hour in every direction from New York City and you have 0 chance to find a $100k property. 

Thanks

Thank you for your replies.  Yes, I am getting all the education I can - webcasts, books, meet ups and interviewing people.  My head is swollen :-)

Hello Everyone. Excited to be a part of this awesome group! I am looking to make real estate investments for cash flow generation, move to Spain, and work on the projects I am interested in. I've been in investment business for a long time, but I am a public markets investor, not much experience in RE. Looking to move pretty quickly and interested in multiple geographic markets. Eventually, looking to be more passive investor but very willing to be more active at the beginning as I am learning the ropes. Open to multi and single-family rentals, turnkey or forced appreciation. I currently have a corporate job and won't have any problems obtaining financing and I am looking to leverage. Somewhat debating whether I should look into Spanish RE, given, I am planning to live there eventually and mortgage rates are lower there. I want to start with a few hundred K and continue to build on. Any advice for me? Thank you
