Rent increases do not typically result in correspondingly large increases to expenses, so they more or less go straight to the bottom line as increased cash flow, which is tax efficient but not tax free.Price increases are realized when you sell, which is a taxable event unless the taxes are deferred via 1031 exchange or partially/wholly exempt from it having been your primary residence for at least 2 of the last 5 years.   

Document all correspondence even phone conversations and text messages.

I add rental properties under the "Other Assets" category, then I add the corresponding mortgage under the "Mortgages" category.  

For someone that invested in MF between 2012 and 2015 and was forced to sell now... well, they may have missed the peak, but they're still making a solid return because of the many consecutive years of market growth and corresponding cap rate compression.Now, in what situations would an investment in MF not be safe? 

As a result, multifamily rents fluctuated less than home prices.The returns on multifamily properties correspond with the asset class and the risk level of the investment.

Long story short....the man died without a will, family all fought but nobody had $$ to reinstate the mortgage so it went to the bank.The house is full of his furniture and personal items.

But agricultural zoning can be AG-5, AG10, AG-20, with the number behind the ag corresponding to the number of acres needed for a single family home.

@Anthony Wick   and @Steve B your correspondence to each other helped me learn something new. 

Even with a PM you can take it to the point of micromanaging every single detail (which I had to do for a short period when things got really bad before I fired them), all the way to never corresponding with your PM and just collect your monthly deposits in your bank.

Always correspond via email so there is written record to bring suit in the event of misrepresentation.6.
