At first, you won't be able to offset your W2 income with losses, but it is nice when you sell a property at a profit and all the capital gains are wiped out by losses from other properties.A huge amount of tax savings get unlocked if one of you leaves your W2 job to focus on real estate and you get Real Estate Professional Status (REPS).

Fortunately I was able to add a 30” model...so I got to spend $400 on a nice whirlpool stainless gas range that looks decent too!

Buying down to 5.75% for $4,400 will give you immediate monthly savings and stability, which can be nice for budgeting as a new landlord.

The units look nice, the apartments are spacious and located in a nice town, close to the NYC train (50 mins from NYC).
