It's a federal crime to tamper with the mail and USPS has its own team of well-respected investigators for this.

I worked out the HELOC in 2020 with state department federal credit union.

Us bank played trustee and guarantor in sham of a foreclosure where they could not prove they were a PETE  and had been hit with their 4 the ftc sanction FOR stealing homes, used hole in the wall attorneys in Bellingham using typos in name and address to not get flagged for too many foreclosure by the courts, Windermere stellar real estate who say outside of my home waiting to lock me out despite supreme court stay on their theft, judge Lewis who signed every Forged/inaccurate/misleading  paper they put through AND denied my restraining order of the real estate company staying called them to see if they were harassing me and they Said no so denied temp and all together day in court altogether plus put a no Bail hold on me after looking my arrest for trespassing even though was taken out of his jurisdiction and in federal court staying paperwork not filed correctly then laughing saying I didn't know why You're here is in supreme court when I got out of jail and made it to court hearing, the assessor for king county who was on third foreclosure company because feds kept shutting them down so opened new one in different name, every process server was at least 200 miles from me and each one different for each document never served to me but judge Lewis signed them anyways(one was supposedly served to me 3 months before case was even filed), Vancouver Police department who had no jurisdiction on the civil matter that arrested me and gave my house keys to the realtor that was sitting outside waiting, and finally to the site veteran that they used to sign in all three places to transfer title and get veterans protection for title after 2 illegal auctions, one public one private, where they were only bidders and opening bid was above value of house, paperwork stated was bought by lsf8 AGAIN!!! 

Yes, you get your rent from the government like clockwork, after you wait 30-60 days for them to set up your account, but what about the tenant's portion of rent?

Minnesota does not have state income taxes for LLCs, but federal income taxes still apply. but we don't plan to generate revenue, or any revenue we generate would be thrown back into the LLC in the form of an emergency/maintenance fund, or towards another downpayment. 

Often times even if its a single family home or a multi with separated utilities there are some utilities provided by local government.

Imagine this on a large scale where people depreciate $10Million  the government gives them a 30 year, zero percent $2.5Million loan  pretty sweet eh?

If often more that they are abandanoning the property to the government because there is some type of constraint, i.e. there is a street light oddly placed in the middle front part of the parcel, there is a creek or wash (which means environmental permits would be needed), there is lack of true legal access, zoning problems, etc. 

Tenants frequently do not take good care of the properties, and the government requires certain standards for the condition of the units.

Sadly, while the government of Puerto Rico is quasi bankrupt and therefore has little money to promote tourism or invest in the necessary tourism infrastructure, the Dominican Republic is constantly investing large amounts of money in those two areas.
