My client has requested I search for homes between $300-400k in purchase price in Palm Beach, Martin, and St.

@Joshua ArsenaultMany people who are CPA's that don't work on Pennsylvania / Philadelphia often miss out on some filings that can cost clients a lot.Philadelphia is a unique jurisdiction that has its own filing obligations.The NPT(Net Profits Tax) and BIRT(Business Income Receipts Tax).The above filing obligations are required but hopefully don't increase your tax burden.Also you mention, "partner and I", depending on how title is held(Tenants in common vs partnership/corp), a separate entity tax return may be required.Best of luck

They have no way to force their client to act appropriately.

stay in touch with your people - the so called "database" aka. friends & colleagues from all walks of life; Build systems to follow up & provide excellent client service; Understand that some will work with others - and, that's ok; hang onto & be grateful to those, who are loyal; this is a MARATHON - best of luck!!!!

I have reached out to a few and none are taking on new clients.

Perhaps I would modify my pricing structure for clients down the road once I had more reputability and overhead (can't operate from home any longer, need staff and more expensive software, etc.).Do these incentives sound like good ideas for a new company with little overhead/operating costs?

Due to the overall nature and competiveness of the market, I've advised my clients to view SFH that contain in-law suites as opposed to 2-4 unit properties that have been receiving multiple over asking offers from cash buyers.

Hello, Quick question for lenders out there - If a client has great credit, 20% down, but no income, can they use the rental income from one side of a duplex to purchase the property and live in the other side?

I have clients that do the same and they use both FHA and Conventional loans.

I have a client with a 3 bedroom that has 3 occupants in it on DC section 8.
