It may seem pointless but I've had a number of dialogues with an SEC Investigator who promises they ARE interested and all the information accumulates until they get the magic puzzle piece which allows them to take action. 

@Roy Gottesdiener The way I see it if you don't want to sell, you have two options: wait for equity to grow and for your saved income to accumulate or use other people's money.

Its a great time for investors to tap into the equity they've accumulated over the past few years on a cash out refinance with improved terms. 

Last year, I shared my ambition in this forum to house-hack my first property using the $30,000 I had accumulated through years of investing.

Additionally, you can do a cost segregation of the property and take bonus depreciation creating additional tax savings.Beyond short term rentals, I think buying a triplex or property every two years as a primary residence and then renting out the unit you lived in and repeating this every two years is one of the best ways to accumulate a portfolio of properties with little down with property tax savings while you live in the property.Then, it will be surprising how quickly the equity builds up as other people pay for your asset that you then can pull equity out and buy a larger apartment building after you have learned about property management from owning the smaller rental properties.To Your Success!

In addition, some reserves should be available to handle any large unexpected issues that crop up before money accumulates to pay for it.

Due to item 1, adding an ADU can require years to start achieving any return (once the accumulated cash flow recovers the initial negative position).4) Adding an ADU is a slow process.

So let's try to break this down for you.In a nutshell, depreciation recapture happens when you sell an investment property for more than its adjusted basis (the original cost minus accumulated depreciation).

At the end of May, I asked them to make Payments for accumulated electric bills as it was adding up and becoming so large.
