A couple of months ago, I ran across one of Dave Meyer's videos, and that led me to the podcast, and that led me to the Real Estate Rookies podcast, and a host of others who I won't mention, but were nevertheless valuable.

I was thinking using shipping containers or someone mentioned modular homes.

People may discuss selling their home with an agent before it’s time to put up a “for sale” sign.

Speaking with one of our attorneys she mentioned the largest area of defaults she has seen is in SS space as it got over saturated in some markets and rent appreciation has not been as advertised.

I know Shawn mentioned CFRI which is one REIA and another is GOREIA.

@Jesse Dominguez-Castelan please elaborate:"the house definitely needs some fixes"You mentioned in a comment you did a new roof and siding.

(you do not pay the taxes you lose the house, and you do not pay the insurance the lender will put insurance on the property for you)  Assuming the properties are showing up on your tax returns the income/loss will be calculated from the returns using this form:  https://content.enactmi.com/documents/calculators/Form1038.C...The form will allow you to add back your paper loss of deprecation on your returns as well as your property tax, insurance and mortgage interest deduction as those last three are already taking into account into your payment as mentioned in the first paragraph.

Thanks for the mention!

Lastly, in your first post, you mention gross.  

Overall, I think you'll need a way to pull out a few hundred thousand via what I mentioned above or another mechanism.
