It would just need to be a situation where they have great contact with the person doing that managing of the project (I.e. have known the person for years, great reputation, person has experience in flipping etc.).

Other team members can fill your gaps of experience, lack of credit, etc.Be ok taking a smaller percentage of "something" rather than chasing all of nothing.

Others may have personal experience to share.

I’m looking forward to learning from your experiences and sharing any insights I’ve picked up along the way!

Anyone have experience using Turbo Tax Premier to do their taxes having investment property(ies)

I very well could have done it the wrong way, but this was just my experience.

@Tru Verret Fleming What was your experience? 

If I have a garden unit in a Zone X (non-flood zone) that experiences some hydrostatic pressure seepage on those huge rain events, does this qualify as flooding?

It happens, which is why I'm posting this story so others can learn from my experience.  

But I would remain open to long-term rental as an option as this seems like a more stable option in terms of income, again this may be my inexperience talking.However, I have always  been somewhat risk averse and investing in real estate is always a big venture, in my opinion/experience, in terms of capital.
