So, you say will I want to take some cash out using the 200k value but most programs will require you to wait some period of time from 3 months up to 12 months for conventional before you can use that 200k value to pull cash out.This seasoning does NOT apply to delayed financing as I mentioned in my post above.  

I had clients in PHX  and Vegas that lost their 4 plex's because they went 100% vacant and stayed that way.. they owned 4 or 5 of them.. it only took about 3 months of negative cash flow and they were done.Max leverage loss tenants  lose property.. that's the formula..  

Given the cash flow loss on the 7% property, I think I need to remove the emotion and make the right business decision for my portfolio holistically.

There are several different types of income in the US tax code.Two main types are “active income” and “passive income".Active income is money you earn from working, such as wages from a W-2 job or income from running a business.Passive income is money you earn from investments like real estate, stocks, or rental income from your RE portfolio where you earn $ without actively working.Normally, you can't use passive losses (like losses from real estate investments) to offset active income like your salary from a W-2 job.That is unless you are an RE Pro.The reality is, that Real Estate Pro status is just a filing status similar to filing married or jointly.And if you are a real estate professional you CAN use passive real estate losses to offset active income from other sources.To qualify as an RE Pro you must:1.

I wonder how long Aircover will last and continues its amazing program. 

I am left feeling that working with them was a wasted investment and decided to cut my losses and move on.

Lastly and before you think I am going to sell you a training program that cost thousands of dollars.  

This is obviously much better than $1,400 per month.On top of that, you will now get 2x the depreciation write-off so your taxes should go down.On top of that, you will now get 2x the appreciation when real estate price go up.On top of that, your tenants are helping you pay down the loan, initially at about $100/mo for both properties, which gradually gets better and better.On top of that, you now have more units so if one or two goes vacant, you have more renters covering the losses of the vacant units.If you want to keep these properties, I would do a cash-out refi and go buy more rental real estate.

I would benefit from this program because it would decrease my 1:30-2 hours commute down to under 30 minutes.

You now have a $1,000 loss and can use that in your taxes.
