In the end unless you are in an odd spot of selling the property within 12 months of the wrong date, it won't really matter for tax purposes.

The reason why I would personally place Columbus Ohio in the #1 spot is because you can still find positive cash flow, the 1% rule, and you get amazing appreciation potential.

If you are free after 230p, find something else real estate related to work at for a handful of hrs a few days a week and stockpile that cash.Lastly, NJ is a great market and there are multiple spots in south NJ that #s still work and aren't completely in War Zones.

The property seems to be in a very solid spot of the city.

It doesn't take long to learn how to spot a good deal.6.

Puts my daughter in a tough spot.. 

Care to humor me and give me a spot to analyze? 

There are a lot of places that'll be a good spot to invest in this city.

For years I told people the most dangerous spot for a real estate investor is 1 or 2 units.

So, the chances of me spotting a construction issue or deferred maintenance problem that a trained professional (who I hire) wouldn't catch are pretty slim.
