Challenges?

I applaud you for putting it out there but 1) maintenance/cap ex is far too low for a duplex 2) no PM. 3) vacancy at 1% will be challenging if achieving near market rent.

Hello Jon, Renting a 3500sqft house comes with a few challenges.

Answer sure.. have to check if there is a due on sale clause or if you have a PG to the orignal seller.. that mortgage stays in your name unless there is a formal assumption  Maybe the example is more challenging for a house as the property.Ex. with vacant land - seller finances to me $20k with 5% down and $1k/moCan I after 1-2 months, then resell the land to a cash buyer for $25k, pay off the original $20k and pocket the $5k?

Buying two rentals in one year can be a challenge, but there are creative ways to make it happen:House Hack the Duplex: Buy the owner-occupied duplex first.

I have never been shy of facing challenges and I truly believe knowledge is power (something my grandfather taught me at a young age)I really want to learn everything there is to learn about realestate and am driven and hungry.Thanks in advance for any suggestions or recommendations.

Challenges?

Challenges include depreciation in market value (i.e., mobile homes often lose value over time unless they are situated on owned land) and tenant turnover.However, tax advantages include depreciation deductions, which allow you to offset rental income by writing off the property's value over time, and cost segregation, which accelerates certain deductions.

." - which to me indicates the same doubts that I have about the legality of the IRS position.Until the IRS is challenged in court over this position and loses, I choose to comply with their position.
