I was just sitting down bored and playing with my BP profile. 

They need to tell people this is a full time job and create a truly "plug and play" system like they claim that only requires a few hours of work per week.

I think you took it out of context.You can only use bonus depreciation one time because once you've used it, you've used it. 

Maybe go for a commission based bonus structure to take it to the next level! 

So if a landlord who is taking all the risk wants to eliminate some of the risk by not renting to people who have already shown that they cannot play by societies rules, so be it.

It was very much like pay to play. 

Bonus points if it also is great for maintenance requests and managing current tenant communications.

Whether it was regular depreciation or bonus depreciation from cost segregation - same treatment basically: no immediate tax consequences. 

Since i play on living here for about 5-10 years i wanted to start investing.

Hey @Henry Lazerow - I would tend to agree that most of the NW side of Chicago 2-4 units don't play out perfectly well for BRRRR deals.I always looked at any potential house hack vs. having to rent - if my overall payments were less than the rent I generally considered that a win.For me...the house hack is just the ticket into the amusement park and then the fun rides come after...getting started can be overwhelming and hard so I can see why people might take a discount.I think one of the keys to strong equity creation is square footage creation which is basically what you outlined with duplexing up or down.
