@Daniel Thomas, It's all part of your strategy and quite honestly a lot of folks don't think strategically through all sides of the issues. 

In the last cycle, I did see an increase in rents on my single family homes as people strategically defaulted in my area and needed space, but when prices for housing are low, I could be wrong, but I would think that might also drive people out of apartments and into their own homes too.  

Along with black out curtains (and I mean complete darkness during the middle of the day) and white noise machines to ensure night shift folks can sleep well during the day.Hope this helps, happy to continue talking more and strategizing!

I'd just like to know more details on what the $15,000 price entailsI can see by your site that you're very thorough an it's sort of a holistic marketing/design/ strategic website versus just slopping together a website.There's a lot of small startup investors on biggerpockets so it would be hard for them to come up with that sort of money when the don't have that money for a deal.I'd think it would make more sense to start with a $100-300 website with information and a form like a squeeze page. 

One thing to ask yourself is if you want to net the losses from rental real estate to gains that only be taxed at 15%(federally) + any state taxes.I mean less taxes is better, but you may want to strategize when you get real estate professional status what the losses will be offsetting. 

This process requires a great deal of strategic thinking and decision-making, which can help you develop essential business skills such as financial analysis, risk management, and negotiation.

Again, sounding like a broken record, this is a strategic conversation with a tax expert. 

Man, I know mortgage debt free feels good emotionally, but is it smart strategically?
