If the “all water off for 10 minutes” plan is unworkable. 

I obviously want to get the best tax benefits and write off the expenses for the house and repairs I have done.

Boxabl can drop off, put it in place and by that weekend you can have a renter. 

I have been paid off by Cogo loans so I know it happens. 

Paid off the first 4 years later.

Good morning everyone, I had some general questions on which idea would be better to start off.

With that said, here is an opinion: You cannot write off anything you use as a personal residence.

Looking on using Direct-Mail Marketing for Off-market properties, any recommendations on which real estate investor list to buy to target the Tampa Bay area? 

Networking with local wholesalers and real estate agents who specialize in investment properties can also lead to off-market opportunities.

Property values continue to grow in value, and you can actually live off the rental income.I think it's best to hav all properties paid off by retirement age, since that's when you are going to rely on cash flow for your living expenses.
