If you ever decide you want a more passive approach, there are turnkey companies out there that handle everything for you.

@Rafael Ro have you thought about passive investing in syndications? 

So, when Trump changes to no tax on tips I feel inclined to change my rental income structure.50% reduction in rent.Previous 50% made up from a mandatory nontaxable tip. 

Each property qualifies on its own economic merits (i.e. rental income covering PITI payments)This is one of the main advantages for DSCR financing, i.e. the ability to scale without any kind of DTI limit imposed by conventional financing.

Plus new folks do a very poor job of screening the buyer for Ability To Repay (ATR) which involves pulling full doc and calculating the borrowers DTI, honest income, honest debt payments, prior debt payment histor (FICO) etc etc.Plus shockingly (or shocking to sellers) if you bought this investment house, fixed it, then are selling with financing you are selling "inventory" and y9ou owe taxes on the gain in the year of sale, you are NOT able to use installment sale to spread out paying taxes. 

Now I can see some builders having an issue with comps.. but other than that its crazy to take these funds as income and then pay tax and plow it right back in.. 

If they qualify as tenants, you might need to honor tenant rights or negotiate a settlement to vacate.Market Potential: A two-family home and a single-family unit could be a great income-generating property post-rehab or resolution.

Quote from @Hansen Tong: Hi Everyone looking for a CPA in CA that understands cost segregation, offsetting of w2 income through active short term rental partcipation etc. 

In Georgia, it's relatively quick to evict, but you've lost substantial income before its over. 

I just listed my last property for sale, a fourplex in Pocatello, because now I focus more on commercial RE and syndications to be a true passive investor and not deal with tenants and repairs.
