@John Underwood My post is not an explanation of the cost segregation, it's about the timing of performing the study.But yes, cost segregation is a way to accelerate depreciation and use the money saved to invest in the next property and so on.

@John Underwood Foremost seems good so far.

John T Reed, a well-known real estate investor with excellent scruples and a strong moral compass, explains it well in his article.

I also like @John Underwood said about using Airbnb/VRBO as a tool.  

Thanks John I really appreciate the feedback and will take everything you said into consideration and follow up with actions, thanks again for the great advice. 

Quote from @John Underwood: SC will give the defaulting owner the overage if they request it.An owner (or former owner) requesting overages in South Carolina or Texas won't prevent you from getting the property at a discount.Under the new Arizona law, an owner requesting Excess Proceeds before the foreclosure is finalized will prevent the tax lien investor from acquiring the property or making any profit besides the generally very low interest.I am worried that might even happen if a junior lien holder requests such excess proceeds.To make things worse, when the 30 day notices are sent to the homeowner, they need to include a statement regarding their right to ask for excess proceeds.

Quote from @John Clark: Quote from @Brian J Allen: Most states are taxing the CAP Gains as income for another 5%, then you have millionaires tax in MA as well.
