@John Matthew Johnston 80% of the time, it's a thankless job:(You're never fast enough for complaining tenants, nor fast enough or cheap enough for owners.To have any chance of success, you have to be extremely organized, or every day starts with your hair on fire!

However, I am still very hands-on for my management business, typically logging 80 hours a week between my two jobs.

Not much has been released about the land that this new park was traded for, but even if that information was out there, not being a developer myself I'm not sure how to quantify if the developer got a "fair" or a "good" deal yup very common. 

GC walked off the job.

They sounded very promising and seem like they was right for the job, so we hired them to do our 2022 tax and to help do our tax planning for 2023. 

They are far more common now and harder to find models without but:1) these add cost to the purchase price2) they don't bring a lot of value3) they can leak or detach and damage the propertyI own around 50 doors and I cap off the line at the wall or in the basement with a valve and a cap so the potential for leaks is 0.00001% :-) 

Since you're a citizen but you live and work abroad you'd still qualify mostly for second homes occupancy or investor non owner occupancy (primary is hard to claim if your job requires you to be physically next to the office as an example so an underwriter isnt going to readily believe you unless you can get HR to write you a letter to state you're remotely capable of earning this income/job duties anywhere).Hopefully that helps let me know if you have further questions into mortgage planning.

If you have hired a specialist to perform a cost segregation study of your real estate property, they will likely use one of the six most common methodologies recognized by the IRS.

They will do a slap dash job on a house that still has a bad roof and foundation in a neighborhood that will see zero appreciation. 

I don't see the value there....paying a plumber to come re-iterate common sense.
