Excess Business losses for 2023Limitation of $578,000 for Joint filers$289,000 for other statuses

So where some might see more gain or a higher cap with other investments a conservative investor will usually see excess risk for the extra return.Mary the primary term of the lease spells out option periods and renewals and how much advance notice has to be given that the current tenant plans to not exercise the renewal option.

Why anyone would ever jeopardize their license or REO account(s) by pulling some of these stunts is beyond me, but no one ever accused realtors of being excessively intelligent.

What fees do you generally try to negotiate because you feel they are excessive? 

@Philip Velleux:We have been in situations where the buyer cannot get conventional financing because the property was too beat up, or because of excessive vacancies the current cash flow would not cover the debt service.  

A party of interest in the property that was sold at tax sale may assign his or her right to claim excess proceeds only be a dated, written instrument that explicitly states that the right to claim to claim excess proceeds is being assigned, and only after each party to the proposed assignment has disclosed to each other party all facts relating to the value of the right that is being assigned.

Chicago is still a great city to invest in....besides the media bashing and the excessive taxes there are still great deals.

Then invest $72k in a year to generate the $900/month rent. 3) invest the $30k in an active investment that returns in excess of 15%.  

The only solution might be for the owner to refinance, if he can, and absorb the excess into another property.

That is excessively exaggerated.
