Hey Tim, Under IRS Publication 523, as a military member on qualified extended duty, you benefit from an extension of the “2 out of 5 years” rule to “2 out of the last 10 years” for excluding capital gains on the sale of a primary residence.

Use the ge benefits that you have earned to their fullest. 

This poses an additional challenge for new RE investors.  

They can help you with tax planning at the beginning of the year to help ensure you are taking advantage of as many tax benefits / incentives that you can.

If we sense there is a red flag, were asking them to upload additional documents like tax returns w2's etc.

I'm a big fan of value-add opportunities, whether it's buying something currently undervalued & fixing it up to my standards, or buying something that has additional income opportunities that have yet to be incorporated. 

That is in addition to clauses that require anyone that stays more than 7 nights in 12-months to apply (then it becomes our choice if they are treated as a temporary occupant or tenant) and prohibition of subleasing.

Properties below this threshold present additional risks and more limited borrowing options.7.

That was my whole reason for the post, trying to figure out how to use my sizeable retirement account to my benefit to grow my business of owning/managing rentals. 

Additionally, when a problem arises, those problems get addressed and all parties involved are updated.Being a property manager is a hands-on / high touch vertical.
