Here's a link to a long term Case-Shiller graph:http://www.ritholtz.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/04/2011-Case-SHiller-updated.pngJust google "Case Shiller long term graph" and you can find other variations.

They had a 20% off sale, plus I had a 10% off coupon.

Internal Revenue Code Section 4975(e)(2)http://www.irafinancialgroup.com/wp/irs-confirms-certain-prohibited-transaction-rules/"For purposes of section 4975(e)(6) of the Code family members only includes the following:The IRA owner’s (which in this case would be the fiduciary of the IRA under section 4975(e)(A) and section 4975(e)(3)) spouse Ancestors (Mom, Dad, Grandparents) Lineal Descendents (daughters, sons, grandchildren)Spouses of Lineal Descendents (son or daughter-in-law)"http://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/text/26/4975-Steven

Or you can use the 10% off coupons and get 10% off retail.For appliances, find a bulk appliance dealer who can sell below retail.

Once you set up the business with some kind of affiliate links/coupons/however...then it is a system that you can set and forget, right?

I use both my Lowes 10 percent off coupons (purchased through ebay)  on both places and gift cards I purchase through Cardpool or Raise for 9 to 10 percent off their face value to pay for these.I purchase my rental homes with cash and I don't have mortgages with them so I'm at the point where I sometimes have to look for tax deductions like these appliances.Gail

Thanks @Jay Hinrichs and @Chris Ambrosio     I also found the following online-seems a good summary of risks and legality:  http://www.johntreed.com/dueonsale.html   But I have a simple question - how does one get the payment coupons to come to a new address and isn't this something that would naturally reflect a new payer on the note?  

They aren't like a 40 unit apartment complex, but NNN deals aren't quite the coupon clippers some make them out to be.    

You do need to plan ahead as the delivery times tend to be 10-14 daysAdditionally,  Lowes 10% off coupons will work at Lowes and Home Depot
