@Joshua Martin,If there’s a chance you’ll sell next year, a HELOC might be the better move since it typically has lower upfront costs compared to a cash-out refi.

Recapture typically happens only when you sell the property.If you use the property partly for personal use and partly as a rental in a given year, depreciation and other expenses must be prorated based on the number of days it was rented versus personal useBased on the current tax laws and regulations, once you've taken bonus depreciation on an asset, you cannot "capture" additional bonus depreciation on that same asset in future years, even if the rates increase.In the 2024 tax year, the rate for bonus depreciation is 60%.

Understand Realtor (Agent) Fees- In Germany, real estate agent (Makler) fees are typically paid by the buyer and can range from 3-7% of the property purchase price, plus 19% VAT.- These fees are due at closing and are part of the overall transaction costs.6.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Recommend you first figure out the property Class you want to invest in, THEN figure out the corresponding location to invest in.Property Class will typically dictate the Class of tenant you get, which greatly IMPACTS rental income stability and property maintenance/damage by tenants.If you apply Class A assumptions to a Class B or C purchase, your expectations won’t be met and it may be a financial disaster.If you buy/renovate a property in Class D area to Class A standards, what quality of tenant will you get?

These deals typically require larger cash outlays (50k-100k) per deal minimums.

I'd talk and look at forums at strategies but with your capital you typically need 100-150k in liquidity to do this. 

Typically, most cities allow for 30 day minimum rentals.

They're not typically the highest ROI, but if you are facing a large tax bill or are having trouble finding a replacement property within the 45 day timeline, a lot of our clients will identify a DST as a backup.

Most on-market deals will likely not fit your investment criteria unless you allocate a substantial downpayment, often at least 30%-35%, or negotiate a price reduction that fits your requirements.Furthermore, while this is not the case for all metro ATL markets, my team and I typically see that a solid portion of the small multifamily space is comprised/orientated in neighborhoods of other small multifamily properties.

Regardless, you might find the copy & paste info below helpful:)--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Recommend you first figure out the property Class you want to invest in, THEN figure out the corresponding location to invest in.Property Class will typically dictate the Class of tenant you get, which greatly IMPACTS rental income stability and property maintenance/damage by tenants.If you apply Class A assumptions to a Class B or C purchase, your expectations won’t be met and it may be a financial disaster.If you buy/renovate a property in Class D area to Class A standards, what quality of tenant will you get?
