Here's a thought; Generation Z, which is on the heels of Millenials, is going to redefine the idea of renting and approach it more as long term Airbnb - meaning not renting the same place for more than 12 months. 

You will get lower rent in a house by the tracks if it is a track used for freight.

Some will help you to qualify redefine your goal.

Significant improvement was just re-defined by the latest IRS release to be the amount of the BUILDING basis (originally it was worded more like purchase price of the property) but now basically if your property cost $50k and building value was $20k ....you must put $20k into the property.

That's where I keep my power tools, usually in Harbor Freight bags for the stuff that didn't come with its own bag or case.

Harbor Freight has one for $13.99 and Amazon has one for $21.99 with 4.5 stars and 694 reviews.

A correction will likely only bring the freight train of appreciation, that has driven prices well above true value, back down to a more realistic level.

Yes, you should call a plumber and have the tenant pay the freight.

Before I became a full time investor, I was a freight broker in the Oil and gas industry and almost all of my clients/trucks were located in Texas and Louisiana.
