@Luke Bricca Yesss...my heart is really in renovating and giving houses a new life (did that with my own house pretty much) but alas I live in the Bay Area so there is nothing I can afford here....or anywhere nearby really... plus a small kid (so travel is hard), so hard to travel frequently and supervise a contractor, etc. 

I have never called a reference before in my life.

QIP has a depreciable life of 15-years and is also bonus eligible.Definitely consider speaking to a certified cost seg professional.

I had never been more excited in my life.

I've always found them to be very human and nice.

Hire a great professional property manager and enjoy your life.

Honestly, I'd sell the condos and start a RE company that buys, rehabs, holds the 2 - 4 stuff and flips any SFH that has a project cost less than 72.5% of the ARV.I've closed financing for about 4 condo deals in my life. 

I've created a 6 months to property schedule for myself and today's task are to use BP forums to ID Pros in my area, read from the book "ABCs of REI", and write about how REI aligns with my life goals so I can check the first one off the list.

Unfortunately, life took us away from SLC, and we're now living on the East Coast.
