Or is that actual so you have the ability to add more to the bottom line? 

John I rented a 4 plex i remodled in charleston as the flip market had slowed.. the tax's on it were substantially higher than an owner occ property.. could be the rates were different this was a 1.2 mil prop..

This is a great place to learn and to connect with people so take advantage of all the great resources.Welcome aboard and best of luck investing!

However, the whole point of making money is to live a better life, which includes caring for family. taking care of our parents is I suspect not even a twinkle of thought to most of the BP members that are on this site and 45 and under..

Any guidance and feed back on my frustration at this moment would be appreciated.

Ironically, I was ready to let go of multifamily and focus on more lease options, but then my team finally got an offer accepted on a 54 unit.

You subject yourself to a lot of risk on DIY.   

My coach suggested (and I implemented) a "must do tracker"....it's a color coded spreadsheet (I like to print multiple copies and keep them on a clipboard to stay in my sight/top of mind). 

Instead they go about it a** backwards and add more red tape and more complications costing the city and it's residents more money

You have to jump through hoops to get the approved work even if they will approve it.
