[Insert Sign of Relief Here] I've been actively searching for my first real estate investment for well over a year now.

@Marco Lopez I am not sure if you have been following texas legislation regarding property taxes but it seems that we are getting a bit of relief in the short term and hopefully long term.

You cannot 1031 a property that you live in (save for some very rare exceptions).Again, you're looking for some tax relief from moving into a rental property.

Seems everything in the bay area has negative cashflow but everyone is counting on appreciation to bail them https://www.sacbee.com/news/local/article233802817.htmlI also noticed Sacramento government passed a rent control law, "Sacramento Tenant Protection and Relief Act" which takes place on Oct 12.

Plus there are programs like Army emergency relief (AER) to help a tenet pay rent when they can't make ends meet.Buying around a post gives the opportunity for qualified renters that choose to rent instead of buy due to convince instead of insufficient funds.Buying at each duty location gives geographical diversification of rental properties.

It is agreed that money damages would not be a sufficient remedy for any breach of this agreement and that the Seller shall be entitled to specific performance and injunctive or other equitable relief as a remedy for any such breach.

That would be a relief for you and the tenant.I'd start advertising right up there with the other 1/1's in the area, if it's not getting interest, lower it a little until it does.

Expanding the use beyond what is grandfathered may trigger the need to seek zoning relief which, depending on your neighborhood, might be difficult to get, especially when it comes to expanding a MF property located in a RSF zoning district. 

I am told I am hooked in with the best wholesaler in my large city and still 90% of his deals don't seem like deals to me.That's a relief to hear. 

Lisa was totally behind me so after breathing a sigh of relief I set out to make that first deal happen.
