I would like to start close to home as I plan to self manage the rental side of it.

Hi Alex and welcome to the forums.

Consult your local CPA to calculate accurately and minimize your tax liability.

It is an awesome system and does everything for single and multi family management, makes our difficult job so much easier.

@Bhushan Shinkre  Sorry that happened to you.   

They tend to go after rookie investors and have seen to many in my network that have purchased "bad deals" and are in a bind with NW deals.

I’m new to the community and I’m planning to start a Section 8 rental property business.

Some carriers won't allow insured to be a trust, so in that case do it in your company name with trust as additional insured.

If you used a loan to rehab your property and find yourself in a difficult position, doing a straight refi (just paying off the old mortgage) will be easier than trying to pay off the original loan and take additional cash out.

If you want to sell this property, you need to let someone inspect it at least once and the discount for due diligence needs to be worth it.
