Stocks dipped last week after labor data disappointed.

I've received different advice - on one extreme is sell off all your rentals, take the cash and take the capital gains tax hit and invest in stocks/index funds (not from a RE investor, from people I know who are horrified that I have more than one mortgage), which I won't do.

If they do not have a valid legal basis and maintain their filing, both the party and their attorney get sanctioned and have to pay.

However, short of my stock portfolio, which I don’t want to touch as it does well too, I don’t have the cash to buy my first deal.

The exception would be a superior website maintained for SEO, IF your investment program is large enough to cover the $5k upfront cost and the $500 per month maintenance for an optimized website. 

Landlords who maintain their rentals attract higher-quality renters who pay more and stay longer.

Some associations may find it financially unviable to maintain their properties, leading to potential sales of condo properties to developers.

I'm unsure since from what I understand the seller would still maintain title and name on mortgage correct.TIA!

Yes, the costs for utilities, insurance, repairs, and maintenance are deductible in the current year since they are considered ordinary and necessary expenses for managing and maintaining the property.

Just make sure everything is well-documented and compliant.I want to reiterate how crucial it is to maintain a close relationship with your CPA and keep the communication lines open.
