if they were that great you'd never see them because they'd all get bought up before they even came to you.I think what @Travis Biziorek is saying is correct - you need a strong network to be successful. 

An experienced agent will list your property with the language, "no showings until an accepted offer", to avoid violating your tenant's rights to the peaceful enjoyment of their home - possibly resulting in their lack of cooperations and a lawsuit against you.

Do you even know why investors create an LLC, or multiple LLCs?

I enjoyed reading about your first year of investing—it’s clear how much you’ve learned.

What else I learned was even if you have friends in the area, or even family, while they say no problem, as we get older we all value our time and it doesn't always feel right asking them to do stuff without compensation or with, but it is always tricky to work that relationship when they don't meet your expectations. 

If some landlords are requiring them to pay application fees before they even know they want a rental versus ones that don't which do you think they will choose.

I always am amazed when someone selling a $600,000 house brings me a listing agreement where they agreed to pay a stranger $30,000 to list their house for sale and they didn't even read the agreement much less spend the $250 to have a lawyer tell them that yes, if they sell it to their cousin during the listing period they still have to pay the $30k.

Recapture typically happens only when you sell the property.If you use the property partly for personal use and partly as a rental in a given year, depreciation and other expenses must be prorated based on the number of days it was rented versus personal useBased on the current tax laws and regulations, once you've taken bonus depreciation on an asset, you cannot "capture" additional bonus depreciation on that same asset in future years, even if the rates increase.In the 2024 tax year, the rate for bonus depreciation is 60%.

@Adam BartomeoGuys the IRS requires the 1099 amount to be equal to the GROSS amount you collected on behalf of the owner, even if you are collecting water bills, etc. from tenants.NOTHING is deducted from the Gross amount,including your PMC fees!

Tiny Homes would be great in college towns, 55+ communities, old trailer courts, even for businesses.
