@Vernon Trice III Huntsville has got some seriously cool things happening, big projects, lots of new jobs and entri MASTER PLAN for the city that encompasses business development, quality of life, green spaces, education – the whole deal (https://bigpicturehuntsville.com/), so personally I'd say buy and hold.

The truth of the matter is, we are refinancing about 20 of our properties into a portfolio loan, and because we have had so much appreciation over the last 2 years, the new loan is going to encompass the firsts and the seconds on all of the 20 properties that have firsts and seconds.

I am looking specifically in the Triad area which encompass Greensboro, Winston Salem and High Point.Is it realistic to find properties that follow the 1% rule ?

This is an important task to do for your family and peace of mind, as probate encompasses a lot more than just real property holdings. 

The properties are typically not fully rehabbed, so it is your responsibility to understand the REI buying process and create a business plan that encompasses more than just buy - hold.

I second the notion that if the government is going to supply relief it needs to be all encompassing. 

The income limits they mention, I believe, are in regards to compliance income as they encompass all your income.

Has your architect done ground up projects that encompass, survey, architectural, civil, structural, geo technical, MEP, etc5. 

I recommend that you reach out to a fee only Financial Planner who can provide you with holistic financial planning advice that encompasses your complete financial picture which includes tax planning, financial planning, cash flow management, debt management, education planning, retirement planning and estate planning.

(Solutions are not all encompassing, but are meant to give examples)Also, I strongly encourage that you do not go with the cheapest option.
