I want to sell my primary residence right at the two year mark so I don't need to pay taxes on the gain. But what count as the start date? I know when I move in but don't have document to prove that. Should it be closing date? Dates on utility bills?

I'm early in my career, managed to save $30K to invest, and want to get my hands dirty with a rental property without too much risk (e.g. no HML/flipping). It sounds like that's a tall order in the NY/CT area given the prices, not to mention whether I'd be able to get a mortgage on anything below $100K, but I figure I'll give it a shot anyway. Any advice on what you might do in my position? Am I being crazy with this idea?

So I’ve been sitting on $40k in cash for last 2 months given my certainty of the economy (stupid move in retrospect). This is a small portion of my overall savings / investments but interested to see what folks think I do with the $40k based on where the market is today. Feels nuts to throw it in at an all time high, but I said that last month and look what happened haha.

Georgia commercial real estate attorneys:

If a party enters into a PSA to buy real estate with knowledge that the Seller is already under contract to sell to someone else can the party take title free and clear of the earlier PSA (neither buyer has closed yet or recorded yet). This comes up because we are always arguing with sellers that if they sell the property to someone else in breach of the PSA and we can’t get specific performance as a result then the buyer should (continued in comments)

In a multifamily home that i own and live in facing lot of trash problem with the street trash getting caught in the hedges/bushes. Fencing might solve the issue but is it worth spending 6-10m on this gives this is an investment property and this does not necessarily add any separate value per se? The trash stuck on my property does bother me and i do intend to live here atleast 1-2 years more. Thoughts?

Just signed the offer for my exit. Getting a 30k+ signing bonus, and would like to hear thoughts as to some good ideas to invest this to maximize my potential.

I'm switching jobs and considering whether I want to roll over my 401(k). I have about $220k in my plan. Considering rolling it into an existing Fidelity IRA with a balance of about $50k. Since October of 2020, I've paid about $880 in "plan administrative fees" to my 401(k) provider as well as the fund expense ratios.

It looks like Fidelity does not charge administrative fees on IRA accounts, so that seems to make it a no brainer, plus the investment options are much broader.What am I missing?

Hi, I'm a working professional with almost 5 years of experience in the field of Procurement but wish to transition into data science. Any guidance how should I start? What all technical skills do I need to learn? Any specific online course I should do?

Thanks in advance.

I’m posting this here instead of my usual Big Law bowl because I’m guessing there are people here who will understand. I just need to vent. I am married to a wonderful man who has a young son. My husband is the kindest, most patient and supportive man I’ve ever met other than my dear late grandfather. He is saintly. But the chaos that surrounds him hurts me. I am the primary breadwinner and far out earn my husband and my stepson’s bio mom. I have always put pressure on myself to succeed (Cont.)

Given the current state of the nation, is right now a good time to shift employers? Just concerned about leaving a place I’ve been for 10+ years only to get laid off because I’m a new hire. Work in IT in software support/data analyst. Should I avoid startups? Any advice is appreciated.

Any recommended resources for a mid-level lit associate looking to develop some skills in health care transactional work? I'm primarily a med-mal attorney and several clients have small opportunities on the MA side that I'd like to be able to assist with. The firm does not currently have a specific transactional healthcare practice group so I'd need to go out of the firm for mentorship in this area. For now, I'm just looking for good basic foundational resources.

Appreciate it!

Recently passed all pre-employment requirements and accepted a job offer from a federal agency. Their HR confirmed salary and start date over email but said I would not receive any final offer paperwork until 1 week before the onboard date. Feels weird to relocate and give notice to my employer without having a signed offer. Is this part for the course or just bad HR?

Hi all! This is not necessarily an interview tip, more like a what should I do now kind of dilemma. I received an email to complete an in-person interview with a company last Wednesday. I responded via email the following morning with a few times I can go in as requested, specifically a time on Monday. I hadn’t received a response by Friday end of day so I waited to send a follow up email on Sunday. I still haven’t received a response. Do I continue to reach out again or cut my losses?

My hubby wants to save 50k each for our older two kids in next two years but we are completely clueless where to put this money for a good return and get tax benefits.
