Figure out target price of replacement property.

@Travis Call - You can target commercial properties which are more based on the income of the property and less so you're income.

@Esi Okpetu uhm, they are two TOTALLY different target markets!

I just wasn't sure how the CSA and accelerated depreciation would be impacted should I convert it to a personal residence 2 years after the rebuild.Sharing this clarification up front would have produced better targeted responses.When you convert a rental property to a residence, nothing happens tax-wise.

She's a predator for an easy target.

Here’s our OPINION for the Metro Detroit market (use as a template for your target area!)

Too many folks think that physicians have deep pockets (if we do, it's not from just being an MD), so we are an attractive target for lawsuits.

Bob is right that you can get better cash flow on the east side, but I still see deals pop up over there from time to time and I don't see any rapid depreciation in those neighborhoods coming any time soon and I think if your strategy is to buy and hold in nicer areas with less risk, it's a very good area to target.

Investors are scouring the market looking for 10-15% COC but your target market appears to be littered with 50% COC returns?

They are out of money or the banks are going to take control of the buildings and nothing is going to happen to them as they are getting their pound of flesh while the stakeholders are getting nothing.
