Statewide Virtual Meeting Tue Apr 18th: Tax Chat L…


There will be no presentation, rather we will be available to ask questions and share information about Schedule E or other real estate tax matters. Please note: If you intend to work on your taxes at or after this event, you should file for an extension or else plan to e-file by midnight.

All the accountants are busy so there will be no accountant on this zoom. We will not be giving tax advice.

Attendees can come with intent to share information or ask questions, either way is welcome!

Part of this presentation will be given by Doug Quattrochi, Executive Director, MassLandlords, Inc. Doug was a founding member of MassLandlords in 2013. He became the association’s first Executive Director under new bylaws in 2014. Since then, he has scaled the organization from a core of 160 members in Worcester to approximately 2,500 dues paying businesses from Pittsfield to the Cape, and from an all-volunteer team to approximately 20 full and part-time staff plus 50 volunteers. Doug has been instrumental in advancing democratic governance mechanisms, including score voting for policy priorities and a staggered and democratically elected Board of Directors. Doug also oversees the RentHelper spin-off, which is expanding access to electronic banking for those of us who are unbanked or underbanked. Prior to MassLandlords, Doug held leadership roles in various Massachusetts startups, two of which are still operating. Doug holds a Master of Science in Aerospace Engineering from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.
