A revocable trust offers excellent estate planning benefits but provides limited liability protection and no tax advantages, while irrevocable trusts provide stronger protection but less flexibility.

I'm planning to put in my first offer on my first rental on a SFH in Kansas City in the next day or two.$140k offer8% interest rate20% down8% management fee5% vacancy5% maintenance 5% cap exI haven't gotten insurance costs yet but it's been suggested that I plan for $2k per year. 

Paying off rental mortgages increases monthly cash flow but reduces liquidity, while investing in hard money lending offers high returns but is taxed as ordinary income.Buying a multi-unit rental provides tax benefits like depreciation, while purchasing a business can yield strong profits but requires active management.

A successful rental property should offer positive cash flow, meaning your rental income should exceed your monthly expenses (mortgage, taxes, insurance, maintenance, etc.).To find the right tenants, ensure the property is priced competitively within the local rental market.

The markets offer low to medium gross yields that max out around 7% if you buy in todays market.

i have made a few offers, and haven't gotten a workable deal yet.
