It passes the 1% rule, but it barely does.

That's why I tell a lot of my clients that it's a perfect time to invest right now when you can still find the 1% rule and positive cash flow especially in properties here that are still 120-180k in purchase price.

My underwriting would have this large negative cash flow for 7 years.I would do a thorough underwriting but want to show using quick math the issue so I will use the 50% rule.  

When we moved our companies to a new accounting software we looked at Quickbooks, but found its international awareness (tax rules, multi-currency, locale support, etc), project/job, and multi-company abilities to be clunky.To be fair, none of the candidates hit everything on our wishlist.We ended-up selecting MoneyWorks by Cognito and have been satisfied with it over the past three years.

With an SDIRA, you can invest in long-term rentals while preserving your retirement savings, but you must follow strict IRS rules:1.

I invest in the Kissimmee area, #1 rule of buying real estate is location. 

Quote from @Rajagopalarao Paidi: I have not seen any deals with this much spread like rehab+pp/.75, is this still valid and expected, because I have not come across any in this range  Hey Rajagopalaroa--Agreed--I don't use the 75% rule. 

I alsodidn't see any mention of HOA fees/dues and or rules.

It can also be an opportunity to discuss house rules and expectations to ensure you're on the same page.While being cost-conscious is understandable, investing a little upfront for proper screening can save you a lot of trouble in the long run.

But then we have to get into talking about the passive loss rules, which may prevent you from actually being able to claim a tax loss if the deduction is more than your rental or other passive income.Or you can claim the actual expenses (gas, insurance, etc) for the vehicle and regular depreciation, proportioned by the percent of business use of the vehicle.
