I will never be happy with 300/mo of cash flow on my 30k money, I could so much more multiple that in a year, at least double in 12 months.

We got an agreed price to cut each unit, then doubled it and offered lawn care to the TH tenants for a monthly fee, they loved it.

I am house hacking with bedrooms in the house and currently making double my mortgage in rental income, so this has boosted my confidence and motivation to keep going!  

I just recently got a text message from my lender stating that we needed to do another appraisal because there was weren't double straps on the water heater and no smoke detectors.

In running the numbers on these potential properties, the property tax alone will be double my current rent payment.

I do this all day every day, full-time, but I still lean on three or four realtors to help me double-check numbers and thoughts.  

Hint; It's not the tenant, even though it's in their name.I was just there recently looking at doubles, triplexes and fourplexes.

I shouldn't have said that it increases the cap by 1%, but just using that as an example to show how big of a difference it makes.This will double my # of units, so just want to make sure my numbers are tight.

Even if your state does require that, doing what is called a "double close" would avoid that requirement (although the process is a little more cumbersome). 

In our mind, we setup the company this way to do just that, avoid being double taxed by Business Income and FICA but our accountant is concerned with taking paychecks and not paying the Medicaid/SS out of it and then having to keep track of what side work is considered wages and what's not.
