Hello BP community,Most of the builders do not offer investors opportunity to buy the lots and they claim they are only for primary residence (i;e they will sell only if you are going to live in it (example Ryan homes, Pulte homes etc..) are there any builders out there who can sell to investors for "buy to rent" in Columbus OH?

I got this e-mail too.

Baselane has the added advantage of synching with your Schedule E you'll use at tax time to file your taxes.

I googled it and found this:If you rent it to tenants, you would treat it as a rental and report it on a Form Schedule E.

Rental income and expenses, such as mortgage interest, property taxes, repairs, and depreciation, can be reported on Schedule E of your personal tax return, regardless of ownership structure. 

@John BuschHi Christopher,A few great local options to consider are Mike Keith with A&E Construction (352-270-0399), Citrus County Handyman (352-440-3305), and Dynamic Craftmasters (352-422-5119). 

If E has any priority over B, for instance, I would not invest in this structure, given that my bank account puts me at a Class B share (side note, their Class B is a little more GP friendly on the surface, than other groups, but devil is in the detail).  

I know that the general guidance is that emergency funds aren't to be invested, but given our financial security and the fact that we already have a personal e-fund in a safe, non-volatile location, would it still be crazy/unwise to invest this 15k in an S&P500 index fund in a brokerage?
