However, I have a hard time making the numbers work anymore:(… 1% rule properties, where art thou?

Past self: maybe don't spend 60k on a liberal arts degree that you use in only the most tangential way.

I see NY with its liberal policies destroying the economy, constantly raising taxes and scaring away jobs.  

It is for Quonset hut building that my art studio is located in near I-25 and 8th Ave. my landlord did a seller finance deal and his insurance company said it is under-insured.  

The food/arts/entertainment has also exploded over the past 5 years!  

@Art MaydanHi Art, I would keep an eye out for the sleepers.. an odd commercial property zoned multifamily mixed use..  

By "nice place to live" I mean: a city that's sizable enough to have cultural/sports/arts activitiesparks and proximity to nature would be a plusclimate-wise, I grew up in CT so I'm used to four seasons, but would rather not go anywhere north of thatThanks in advance!

@Art AllenThanks for the advise!  

For a business owner with $100,000 taxable annual income, the net tax savings for using an S Corporation instead of an LLC in taxes paid every year can be as high as $7,500.Holding PropertiesWhen holding properties as a cash flow investor, the LLC (or LP) is generally the better choice because an LLC has more liberal distribution rules.

There's a fancy art display of W 80th every third Friday.
