Would love any additional info and the chance to check it out! 

I'll just add that in addition to offsetting future tax liability, I'd like to offset current taxes as well, during my highest earning years. 

Considering that, you are likely going to see appreciation year over year, which essentially will be additional equity you'd capture just by simply living in the home. 

Additionally, I wanted to begin using properties to pull equity to go towards buying more.

So, many people choose to operate in their own personal name but buy an additional umbrella policy to protect themselves from liability.

In short, I can afford the additional $1100/mo cost of a second house, even until I rent it out.I have around $35K in HYSA and emergency funds that I could use for a down payment, but that's less than 20% which would be required for a conventional loan, assuming full purchase price.

In addition to that, you could open up a credit card to get that credit history rolling.

That quote will be the basis for any additional damage request. 

That is an additional savings. 4.

Specifically I would love additional guidance when it comes to the process of forming a syndication to purchase apartment buildings.
