Any reader needs to look in to the specific state they are operating in or where they plan to deploy the exemption to verify they qualify.

I understand income, whether distributed to members (assuming a multi-member LLC) or deployed back into the LLC (to pay down principal on properties or other uses) will be taxed.

Assuming such a differential, the regular account blows away the tax-deferred account.You can attain a greater return mainly because you can deploy leverage much more effectively (lenders don't like to lend to IRAs, and the IRS removes part of the tax benefit when you do so), which turbocharges your returns on buy & hold rentals.

My plan at the time was buy a home at every duty station and eventually have maybe 3-4 properties with equity I didn't pay for.During my recent deployment the news came out that the Air Force is cutting personnel in a big way.

I had to get out because me and my husband were deploying too much (he's retired too).

Online review “Prolog is relatively easy to deploy, and the cost for a small company to implement the system would be in the range of $10,000 for three concurrent licenses and another $10,000-15,000 for implementation and basic configuration”Property Management / AccountingQuickbooks pro “I'd love to use quickbooks pro but they won't allow me to import expense data, nor allow subdivision of income/expenses as I would like.”

Just being in the military may not automatically grant you a five year extension on the 121 exclusion...some extended period of overseas deployment may be in the mix.  

However, there are still legal strategies that can be deployed to mitigate rent control even in neighborhoods with it, and at the end of the day people still move even in rent control areas, so sooner or later rent gets bumped to market.

I have researched and seen that the only way to get out of a lease is through the normal ways of deployment, harass, unsafe living conditions, etc., or they have to make the best effort to release.

Simply put, SS facilities are "worth" more to people who already own them because they know better than anyone else how profitable they can be and how tough it can be to find a place to re-deploy any gains at a comparable rate.
