I hate to miss out on the accelerated depreciation with the CSA.Yes, you can utilize a cost seg study on your acquisition via 1031.

The tenant gets listed at the renter on the water bill and is supposed to pay it, it’s in the lease agreement they pay utilities.

Hello Jenna, I have been using Apartments.com for rent collection and billing utilities.

If we put the home on the market we would lose at least a month rent and utility cost.Some background on the property is that we put 120k towards a down payment at 6.125%.

It doesn't fit the "20% rule" for STR's, but it is cash flow positive; the 3b/2ba is cashflowing around ~$400/month after PM fees + utilities. 

The choice between utilizing either Section 105-374 or 105-375 for foreclosure rests with the county attorney.

Compare, contrast, and then define your own policies utilizing common sense.You must proactively defend your decisions.

While I would gladly accept an AirBnb booking, my property is less a vacation rental, and more a utility for traveling professionals/displaced families. 

That is overly simplified and I've left out other things (inspections) as well as some things that are going to be the same whether you own or rent (utilities, moving).the numbers are very different depending on where you live-both in terms of costs of buying and selling, cost of a home and cost of rent.

I've been at the same job for 3 years now and in the same industry for about 12 years.I do live in the house I own, As far as the HELOC, that was kind of my plan to utilize that as a down payment...ive been reading about the DSCR loans, why do you say I wouldn't be ready for that as a first timer?
