Britt,My firm has evaluated some smaller properties (under $500k) in the past for cost segregation, and it generally does not cost justify moving forward, since the benefits are small, and typically the tax liability on the income is minimal if any.

For example, you could create a weighted structure where a percentage of profits is based on cash contributions, and another portion compensates for rehab or management efforts.Rent Payments and Tax-Free Profits:If you structure it as an owner-occupied property, the rent you pay could be shared proportionally, but tax-free gains on resale may only apply to your share, as you’d be the owner-occupant.

My biggest conundrum now is I want to be my own GC because even when I play with smaller numbers they’re still out of reach for me to be able to attain this goal and afford the monthly mortgage with taxes and insurance.

The property was rented and generated $160 cash flow after mortgage, taxes, insurance and property management fees were paid.

Invent a global tax (Carbon Tax) and invent a token of credit against those tax's (carbon credits) and shazam a market where traders can buy, sell trade, option, leverage, hedge against these and the flow of them.

I'll save you the details but...Per door cost: $63,300All in Cost: 700kTotal Revenue: 137k(ish) annuallyNOI: 65-73% (in the expenses we included: insurance, taxes, $75/month per door repair expense, management fee 8%, grass cutting, & a misc fund for random crap business license, etc.)Now...

How does this look from a tax perspective.

Credit is a factor as bad credit may limit options, or may have the lender require you to put 10 or 20 years of taxes and insurance into escrow. 

If you need financial help, ask under the "Finance, Tax, and Legal" forum.

The units are all currently occupied right now, so we won't have to worry about the buyer's market right now haha.With the cash flow I will receive, it will be enough to take care of property taxes, insurance, and enough to save up for any emergiences with the unit that I will need to take care of, so no need to worry, I got you :)!
