The agent forgot to include a clause in the offer that before they buy that they need to sell If you can prove that you requested the agent to put in this clause and agent did not, my view is the agent has some responsibility.However, you signed (or e-signed) the offer.  

I dont broker so would not know that end of it although since I was NMLS licensed they called me and e mailed me constantly to send them files.

You mentioned your income is around 40k, so if your lender allows up to a 45% debt-to-income ratio, that gives you about 18k per year or 1,500 per month in total allowable debt (including car payments, student loans, mortgage, etc.).Just as an example, I pulled up a property at 4527 E 60th St, Kansas City, MO 64130.

we are over 100x P/E ratio on the Mag 7. 

Hi everyone,I’m hoping to get some honest, constructive feedback from investors, realtors, or anyone with an eye for what makes a home sell.The property is at 14 E 54th St, Savannah, GA 31405 in the Ardsley Park area.4 bedrooms, 3 bathsAbout 2,400 sq. ft.Built in 1950, brick home with original hardwoods (covered by current flooring)Vintage details like a fireplace, detailed ceilings, and original 1950s tile in two bathroomsFully fenced yard and classic curb appeal with a white picket fenceHere’s my main concern: I want to make sure I’m presenting it the right way to attract buyers.Specific feedback I’d love:Do the photos (link below) showcase the home well, or would staging/lighting changes help?

Keep each property in its own LLC, and report STR income as business income on your Schedule E or Schedule C (depending on your level of activity).6.

I can sort of understand that because I don't have a property that I can expense this against in Schedule E.  

Quote from @Jules Aton: Quote from @Ned Carey: @Anna E.

The rental side is reported on Schedule E, where you can deduct all the expenses tied to that unit.

In real estate, e-commerce, whatever.. there is, regardless of the age, always going to be snakeoil sales men and Tupperware salesman, or now the modern e-course motivational salesman like Wes Watson or Andrew Tate.Ultimately, the economy and the ways people create value have changed dramatically over the decades.
