Hello, I manage a couple student houses.

Currently we are looking into a couple of properties in Zip code 43206 and wondering if you can share inputs about the area from the point of view of safety, tenant pool & growth/appreciation.I have lived in the zip code of 43206 for over four years.

In order for me to save $50k plus will take me a couple of years rather than maybe a year tops.

For buy and holds I'm investing out of state.I have a couple rentals here in Boise and I am subdividing a property near downtown.

Do they have the necessary resources to stay on top of all the tax issues such as 1031 exchanges, 754 Step-Ups, etc.Feel free to send me a private message if you have any questions here.A couple articles you can read that will be helpful:https://www.biggerpockets.com/forums/51/topics/1206189-cost-...https://www.biggerpockets.com/forums/51/topics/1204912-how-t...

A couple of questions: do you have students call the utility services to put the services under their names before move in?

I understand that the county is in process of revising policy, but a couple of questions.

Hi Thomas, My daughter and I manage long term rentals in the Phoenix market and I can say that in the past couple of years we are seeing a trend of people doing exactly what you are considering.

In terms of what I learned from reading Rich Dad/Poor Dad a couple years, I think I land in the Poor Dad philosophy and I'm looking to break out of that a little, but also am risk-averse at my core. 

PAL rules have a curve that drops to zero at $150k of combined income for couples.
