Giving reduced rent to someone who will be enjoyable to live with while treating you and your space with respect is worth it.

So, it will reduce your net income and therefore your taxable income.

Interested in finding DST sponsors that sell directly and thus reduce the front-end load.

The townhome is now 25 days on the market, my concern is that I reduced the price significantly and still no rental applications.
