See, the older I get (don't ask), the more annoyed I get with the endless "I WILL SHOW YOU HOW TO CUT YOUR TAXES in DECEMBER" emails, posts, webinars, podcasts, TikToks, YouTubes and whatnot.

@Gash Nookala,Renting can indeed be slower in winter, but here are some tips to boost interest:Enhance Listing: Ensure your listing has detailed descriptions and high-quality photos—consider professional photography if needed.Competitive Pricing: Double-check local comps; even a slight price adjustment or incentives (like a reduced deposit) could attract more interest.Broaden Marketing: Beyond Zillow, Hemlane, and MLS, use social media, community boards, and local business connections to reach a wider audience.Flexible Lease Terms: Offering shorter or month-to-month leases might appeal to tenants during this slower season.Local Property Manager: A local pro can tap into their network and help fill the vacancy faster.These steps should help you find a tenant despite the seasonal slowdown.

Number 1 reason for non-rental is $ price of rent, second is the season, I say the season is Thanksgiving to Super Bowl. 

It was really insightful, especially the part about how DSCR loans offer shorter seasoning periods and more flexible qualification requirements compared to conventional financing.I’m currently focused on scaling into 6+ unit multifamily properties in New Jersey using the BRRR strategy.

I’m self managing myself but the tax side of it is a little confusing to me but I’m recording everything involved as far as maintenance, traveling, expenses etc. just want to know what some people would do in my situation or what to I can benefit from come tax season  @Angelo LlamasI recommend that you find a real estate accountant to help you understand and prepare your taxes.Bigger Pockets is a great place to find a real estate tax accountant. 

If they move out who cares, it's rental season and put someone new in.

Unless you're a very seasoned investors, the value in committing to the right agent should be in their vast local market knowledge, expertise of their lane, transactional experience and so on.

I would at least start there and good timing to figure out a plan with spring slowly approaching and our busier sales season in WI.  

Rent out in the busy season.  

And where you'll see cap rates go up is in the older assets and smaller markets.
