@Michael Zandona - as far as I know, you can do a cost segregation study on any investment property.   

I have been in the car business for 16 years and have been studying investment real estate for 2 years.

Investing with a syndicator, ESPECIALLY anyone doing any form of outbound marketing or with a big social media presence, should be done only be experts who are skilled in evaluating sponsors (dozens or hundreds of due diligence repetitions and hundreds of hours of self study.If that doesn’t fit the bill start studying.

I've previously found cost segregation studies to be highly beneficial, particularly as a strategy to offset taxable income from both my full-time employment and rental properties.

Before putting together an LLC I would study the following:- Understand what level of protection it actually offers you and understand how to operate the LLC so that you never jeopardize the "corporate vail." - Understand risk mitigation through insurances - Understand how building a rental portfolio under an LLC changes the debt options you use when closing deals. 

After years of falling on and off track and finally centering my focus, vigorously studying, and pushing myself towards a new career I felt passionate about, I FINALLY got my Real Estate License.

With the right targeted marketing to people in the Northeast & Midwest, appropriate amenities for the audience (you’ll want to have super solid washer and dryer for assorted horse laundry, places to put saddles, a solidly equipped kitchen, places for kids to study and parents to work, etc) you’d be able to distinguish yourself in the marketplace.

Investments in Opportunity Zones can offer great tax benefits, but when combined with a cost segregation study, the benefits can multiply.An Opportunity Zone are areas that struggle with poverty and lack the necessary access to economic opportunities.

I've been in REI a long time and have seen the good, the bad, and the ugly, but $60k of damage from one tenant indicates gross negligence on the part of the property manager.I'd suggest three things: 1) Study the contract you have with the PM company, and talk with your attorney ASAP to see whether a lawsuit is feasible/advisable, 2) Get at least three bids from other contractors on the repairs (and before you hire any contractors, study up thoroughly on how to properly vet and manage contractors--there's plenty of info about this on BP) 3) Don't do any more business with the PM company (or any contractors they refer), and keep them at arm's length while you discuss your legal options with your attorney.

The market does slow in the winter, but people still move, especially in areas with decent weather.You need to study the market constantly and know how you compare to the competition.
