Thanks all,Preston Henman Define your buy box, which area , what price , what size , how to finance based on your risk capabilities.

You need to define what it is you can offer the rest of us by making us the best version we can possibly be.

It's clear you have a specific goal in mind (achieving $5k cash flow) and a well-defined strategy to reach it (BRRRR).

My next question is: how are you defining success?

Let’s dive into it.Potential consequences of working with an unqualified firm:Missed opportunities: Firms that are inexperienced may overlook numerous components that are eligible to be reclassified as they lack the knowledge or don’t perform a thorough analysis.This reduces the amount of potential deductions which also reduces your potential tax savings!

If income grows faster than rent then the home appreciation can still accelarate rapidly especially when city inventory is reducing....Also the very basic component of home appreciation is money being circulated and not primarily the income in that area.

I see the IRS regs about rental activities being defined as passive, but I don't see anything about a lower rate.I just see that this "passive activity" distinction subjects us to "passive activity loss rules", which limit our ability to offset other types of income with net passive losses.But even that limitation is negated for us because we fall into the "active participation" exception, so we can offset our regular earned taxable income dollar-for-dollar with losses from our rental (if I understand the regs correctly).
