With real estate prices so low, I'm thinking about buying a single-family home as a rental property. Is it true that I can deduct the tax loss from this type of investment against the salary from my practice?

I hear radio ads and see things on the internet that say there are advantages to incorporating in states that don't levy income taxes. Is that true?

Most of my investments are in mutual funds. A friend of mine told me that I should pay attention to a fund's expense ratio and seek funds with low expenses. What does this expense ratio include?
