This seems like the most active Portugal string.

I've been in the investment space almost 9 years now, and been actively investing in flips myself, the last year.

While RAD also concentrates on areas of Texas, Idaho, California, and Florida for its growing portfolio of rental properties, according to the January offering circular, Philadelphia has been its primary locus of activity.

Otherwise, you should be more active and flip homes or develop ground up which is far from passive. 

The market was much more active at the time though than it is now, so it could be easier now.

DSCR is going to be your best bet here.

Appreciation: Are you primarily looking for immediate cash flow (rental income exceeding expenses) or are you betting on long-term appreciation?

Until this point, I had nothing but great experiences with Norada's referrals in other markets, so I put my trust in them here as well.As a veteran, I saved the money for these investments during my time on active duty and while working as a contractor in Afghanistan and Iraq for over five years.

Is there a way to reduce the amount of hours so you have more time for other activities?

In your scenario, claiming that $117k depreciation deduction could lower your taxable income from $700k to $583k, which is a huge benefit in the short term.As for the RE pro status, if one of you becomes a full-time real estate professional, you can potentially offset active income (like W2) with passive losses from real estate.
