Umm worth it how? If you can afford to own property, it's generally a good investment yeah

If it's within your means then most likely yes. You should probably consult with someone before going through with it but it's one of the safer investments you can make

Yes, buying a multi-family home to rent out can be a great investment! By owning rental properties, you can reap the financial rewards of passive income and benefit from potential property appreciation. Furthermore, diversifying your investment portfolio helps to minimize risk and maximize returns.

Buying a multi-family home to rent out can be a great way to generate income and build wealth over time. In addition to the competitive rates of return that multi-family homes can offer, there are other benefits such as increased cash flow due to multiple tenants, tax advantages, and the ability to leverage equity through refinancing.

Buying a multi-family home to rent out can be a great investment opportunity, especially in today's market. Investing in real estate has many benefits, such as the potential for tax deductions and increased cash flow. Furthermore, you can use the income generated from the rental units to help pay off your mortgage or help with other investments.

Of course! Multi-family homes often appreciate faster than single-family homes because they produce more income and provide an economy of scale for maintenance and upkeep.

It can be a great investment opportunity, as long as you do your research and due diligence regarding the potential income and expenses associated with the property. It’s important to assess the home's location, the dwelling's condition, possible repairs that may need to be made, and market rents in the area before making a decision.

Situation:
You’ve been accepted to an Ivy League 2 year premed program (Harvard, Columbia, UPenn) costing 20k per semester. Currently, you have no student debt, only went to state school for undergrad, and strongly dislike the work you’ve been pigeon-holed into at 2YOE (risk). You have also decided to prob not become a doctor although being interested in the sciences.
Would you still attend the program? Would it help with MBA/other program? Chances of successfully recruiting out if not for u?

The form clearly shows $2,500 so where is the $7,500 coming from? Also, is there carryover to next year’s return if all of it isn’t use? Looks like maybe form 8834 if I’m reading it correctly?

Thank you.

Or, is there any other low effort way of doing this?

I’m going to be making an exit soon to a company that’s working hard to recruit me in. I’m in an AE position. I’d be forfeiting $18k in RSUs vesting, President’s club, and $200k+ in pipeline if I do move. I’m inclined to leave because this would be a step up in a role and I really like the team.

My question is: is it reasonable to ask for a $40k sign on bonus to account for what I’m leaving here? How do you go about negotiating that?

For 5 years I basically had 10 frequent clients. Now those clients have brought me an average of two each, and now I have 30 constant clients and a bunch of clientele in my agency. It's true that serious, responsible, and consistent work pays off, let's say that I no longer worry about selling, practically, the houses that I show sell themselves.

Some agents are not sincere, and some houses have a negative record (this is what we call the incidents inside the homes), but many agents do not say it. I know it is about ethics, but at the same time, it should be punishable because you are deceiving a person to take advantage of the situation; it is a scam.
