If not rented at fair market rent, this property will just count as your residence, not a rental for tax purposes.Structuring the property under an LLC or land trust could trigger a due-on-sale clause, so check with the lender before proceeding.To minimize risk, consult a CPA for tax strategy, weigh financing costs, and draft a legal rental agreement.

From there we identify properties that could have some potential and if you are interesting in diving deeper, 1) we do a thorough video walkthrough to give you a realistic look of the property, 2) we give a ballpark estimate of rehab costs (we do 40 a year with our GCs o we will get pretty close), 3) we talk through market rent with our property management team, ARV, and potential highest and best use.Ideally you find great investor agents who know their market really well and have a network of resources to provide you with enough confidence to take reasonable action.

But the portfolio operations enabled both of those entities to use, in effect, government-related borrowing costs and sort of unlimited credit, to set up the biggest hedge fund in the world...So the portfolios are poison.
