If any of the proceeds touch the sellers hand the IRS sees it as taking profit and you will have to pay taxes on that portion.Net proceeds - Is the net sale, minus any Equity in home being sold.I find a lot of investors who want to purchase less than their reinvestment requirements will do the calculation to see what their tax burden would be if they purchase less than they sell.

Utter blasphemy, only "unsophisticated" investors buy in cash.An experienced investor once told me "why use my cash, when I could just default on OPM" I know its not popular thought on BP.. and of course ramp up requires it unless you inherit a ton of dough but as we age out I sure like free and clear and no debt.. just the hassle factor of having to make payments :)

Newer septic rules also require enough land for two septic tanks per each one you are required to install.

Electric: is the easiest to split, but may require holes cut in walls to separate the units.Gas: gas lines aren't as flexible as wires, but it can usually be done affordably.Water: most cities will NOT install additional water meters on a property.

That would probably require a professional. 

A property manager not requiring this raises serious red flags.

Acid washing when required is $500.

So, I also require that :Monthly Rent + Monthly Debt Payments <= Gross MONTHLY Rent * 45%This is similar to how mortgage qualifications work by considering the applicants' debt loan along with their housing cost in relation to their income.

I don't want to go back on my own word in any way, obviously, and had stated the lease was for a year.Now I plan to use apartments.com going forward for leases and rent collectionThe newest lease with a different tenant is plainly non-renewable and requires a new lease to continue tenancy after a year and outlines fee costs.
