Yes, your month to month cash-flow might now add up fast but neither does a single CD account at a bank add up enough to lend out for a loan. 2.

I have one LTR, single family home with about 135k equity in it. 

., "I will buy at least one single-family home, duplex, triplex, or fourplex before the end of 2019") and then do it.

I am in the process of buying a single family rental, and will be inheriting the tenant, who is on section 8.

Areas close to BlueOval City will likely see an increase in housing development, including single-family homes, apartments, and short-term rental properties for contractors and temporary workers.

You want to judge every single landlord in the country.

Maybe you pivot into a multi-family in Phoenix or a single-family in Omaha.. from what I’ve heard they can still provide stable cash flow.

I'm aware that I'll have to talk with a zoning board to rezone a single family lot to a multifamily lot.

If single you would have standard deduction of $15,000 plus LTCG tax bracket of $48,350 giving you room of $63,350 to fit income and converted amounts in before you pay any tax.

@Kezia Edmonson Yes, you can use a 1031 exchange to defer taxes on the sale of your single-family investment property when purchasing a multifamily property, but only the portion used as investment (the three rented units) qualifies.
