One thing that I find frustrating is categorizing same year capital deductions (e.g. furniture that is able to be deducted in the same year due to 179).  

Contrary to most business lending, the REI industry has a lot of "non-bank" lenders that provide attractive loans that can lower your cost of capital and improve your profit/cash flow.

Of the things you mentioned, seller finance is one to focus on if capital is low.

It's not a fair partnership if you the tap the equity of their property to use together if you aren't brining any capital to the table.

I feel like this may be the best opportunity for house hackers as there will be some early adopters who capitalize on it because you can basically turn a single into a multi.

Focus on what the rents will look like post-renovation with 4 units instead of 2, and have a clear game plan for refinancing to pull your capital back out. 

Appreciation takes time and from everything I have seen and read, the Northeast is a good place to be for appreciation if you have the capital to start there. 

What are your priorities in terms of capital appreciation vs cash flow.

I am interested in purchasing more triple net leases because I now have more capital.
