You could be in orange mound but then also close to the pink palace and everything in between.

As long as you get a great deal and can force appreciation, you can harvest the equity and use it as a downpayment  for the next deal... so you don't have to keep socking away money from your paycheck for real estate. 

Crops are harvested. 

The dark pink line is the bookings and the light pink lines is the bookings.

I like pink jasmine ... not only beautiful, fast growing, and hardy, but also has such a nice smell when blooming.

This has a similar benefit in that a reduced valuation may reduce estate taxes.Anyways sorry if that wasn't any help but if I think of anything I'll try to double back.I also wanted to add, although you probably were already aware, if the interest has multiple units, perhaps spreading the transfer out over several years could help.Also don't forget about harvesting losses from other sources like brokerage accounts (make sure to avoid wash sale rules) or even carryforward amounts.

We chose to not update our rental side bathroom with similar pink tiles and I went back and forth over the decision for a while.

harvest gold appliances? 

Lease volume almost doubles between the peaks and troughs of the pink line.
