I gave her some floor cleaner so she knew what to use and told her how to clean it.Claims that there is a roach and ant problem, and nests under the shower.

To go with syndicate route, you would have to build a good nest first, say put in 100-500K into the deal every year, the compound IRR will really get you the desired financial freedom one wants.

Hi all,I just installed a $250 Nest thermostat in a unit.Is that added to the cost basis, or can I deduct it as personal property?

Once the sale is complete I will have a nice little cash nest egg.

But the idea of waiting around a few years for a large nest egg seems to be a waist of precious time.

Before adding the nest thermostat, my prior tenant had an electric bill of $397 one month. 

Exception, the Nest, but it is expensive, I only have it in my personal residence.   

I have a nice nest egg, and would like to make some smart, creative decisions to put my money to work, but have hitherto lacked the knowledge necessary.

If it doesn't involve active real estate iv nesting, then consider investing passively in real estate.

There are easy ways to grow your nest egg to afford your first flip.
