@Dennis GallagherAs for the 50% Rule (where your expenses equal about 50% of your revenue) - I might argue that the flaw in the theory is you will walk away from many great wealth building opportunities just because it doesn’t meet the formula.

You can also check meetup.com or search Facebook for real estate investment groups, clubs, or meetings in your area.

Meeting with Builder Banc later today and demanding my money back.

There are three safe harbors that businesses may use to meet the test.Half of the amount the business spent on services were for services performed in a QOZ.Necessary business functions and necessary tangible property was located in a QOZ.Half of the hours of service received by the business were performed in a QOZ.A business does not need to meet all three safe harbors to qualify.

I would chose a good market in the midwest that meets your criteria for cashflow and appreciation with $100k barrier of entry.

With this property you must leave $50K in the property in order to meet lender debt coverage requirements.

Also it meets the 50% rule. 30 year mortgage at 7% is a payment of approx 323. 925 rent - 462 (operating expenses)= 462; 462 - 323 (debt service)= 139 cashflow.

Tax saving might change you ROI so focus on meeting those rules if you are going to close on it.Kissimmee’s competitive STR market requires strategic theming and marketing to stand out, but its proximity to Orlando attractions and future developments like Epic Universe could drive demand.This post does not create a CPA-Client relationship.

The HOA should have an annual meeting and send notices.

Thanks Ash, and nice to meet you
