Between lovely countryside and stunning coastline, great food and super friendly people I love this place!

Unless you are itemizing your tax return, the interest on the primary is not tax deductible.

The loan does need to be secured by the property being improved if we are talking about a personal residence and personal itemized deductions on Schedule A.

Because looking at the T12 from a 100 units will be different from 20 units will be different from 5 units in some of the line items (account names).

How much can you budget for furnishings and all kitchen items and creature comforts for the ones you want to MTR.If you have a vacant 6-unit, you have great possibilities to try all strategies.

I am only familiar with the contract in my state but items seller agrees to do based on inspection findings are their responsibility unless spelled out differently.  

@Mary Jay yes and that’s counting even big ticket item repairs averaged out so my monthly is actually higher. 

What is the speed of the internet, is it hot water (international property holders), is it AC.These basic clear descriptive items are great because if the price is fair and it clearly states the benefits.

But, on the other hand, if your life is very busy with your w2 job or you have a family to take care of, then maybe having a property management company will do you well and just worrying about larger items.

I then would have my tax cpa enter in or do it after discussing tax based items (depreciation- MACRS, reserves, year end accruals, reserves, etc.).
