I won't ever close on another OOS property without walking it first but that involves paying for lots of flights and hotel/rental car costs if flying out there to make an offers but the $1500 to $3000 would be worth the cost to me to save on future headaches. 

Its because I can look at the situation and say that I'm having these kinds of bad situations LESS than I plan/save for!

So another solution is to save up for another deal with your cashflow + savings, and pull money out when/if the interest rate gets lower?

I have saved your contact info.

Quote from @Jose Remor: Yes, you can save $500 by managing yourself, but you can also lose a lot more than that with some rookie management mistakes.

Even if you can't use the full bonus depreciation in 2022, the tax savings could still be impactful in future years.It's great that you’re planning to work with a real estate-specific CPA, as they can help ensure you're compliant and help optimize your strategy for future tax savings.

I had the same situation last year with a property bought through Rent to Retirement in Detroit. 

You will have no or very little cash flow within the first few years but if you have strong income and savings you'll be OK.

Don't forget the cost segregation on the SRT portion to save you taxes.This post does not create a CPA-Client relationship.

Since you are retired, you want to preserve that $200k and make it grow I assume?
