    REAL ESTATE 
    Hi everyone. Once again, I come to this wise group for guidance. For those who don't know me, I've recently begun the RE investing game a little over a year ago and now have a few condos and duplexes under my belt.

    Hotel-Condo

    REAL ESTATE

    Is anyone currently investing in the Go-Zone in New Orleans due to hurricane Katrina/Rita? Or is anyone thinking about investing there? If so, what are your thoughts on this investment. Has it been good so far? Any pitfalls/concerns to be aware of? Thanks!!

    Real Estate Deductions for a Company

    These two question are for Diane, or anyone else similarly experienced in accounting. I recently set up a new LLC and purchased a piece of rental property (condo-hotel). I was wondering to what extent can I deduct the closing costs? I know that for a personal homeowner, only mortgage interest...

    Wow, this is exactly what I was seeking

    Hello everyone, I am a new member to this forum and have been craving the knowledge that this forum has to offer. Hopefully, as time progesses, I too will be able to impart some of my own. Currently, I am a 27 year-old attorney in Los Angeles, but my goal is to become a full-time real estate...
