The combined value of the three rentals is $1,500,000, with remaining mortgages totaling $290,000 (with 12 years left), leaving me with $1,210,000 in equity.

We find ourselves receiving a combination of PDFs, excel spreadsheets, banking statements etc which then require reconciling and organization on our end.

They are often based on a combination of unleveraged internal rates of return and discounts to replacement cost due to the scarcity of debt.Where cap rates are used, they have seen significant movement off the 2021 lows, with 5-star properties seeing yields expand by 175-200 basis points.

capital gain and passive activity is very different you can't offset each other.see to make this PAL stuff to be make sense you need to combine it with 2 years tax-free first 500k primary buy/sell, 1031 , syndication and development/flipping activity.

With your combined incomes, it's within reach.
