.: My question is… Do people promote buying rentals due to some sort of  personal benefit/conflict of interest?

Here’s what keeps successful house buyers winning (even when deals fall apart):**They don’t get emotionally attached to a deal- A lost deal is not a personal failure.

Here’s a breakdown of the main ways investors fund their first deal while minimizing their own cash outlay:1.Private Money & Hard Money Loans– These lenders focus more on the deal than on your personal finances.

The management guy which is the owner of his company as well said that there were more applicants but he didn't even bother to send it to me because those applicants had bad criminal records. last week he said there was more applications and he was going to check it but i haven't had any responses from it. today i called him to ask qbout those applications and he sounded a bit upset and said that he was gonna check it today, same thing he told me last week, i also asked his helper and she said that he was the one encharged of my rental. everytime i call him he sound busy. he seems to be all over the place and sometimes i think that he is just not taking the time with my property. also last week i mentioned him that if he could pls change the description of my property online and to add that i accept section 8 tenants and he said ok but still hasn't done it. i could tell that there was no communication between him and his helper who also works with him because one time she called me mentioning that ahe was gonna show the property to someone but my managemt already showed this property to this person. when i did let her know that he said that she didn't know i could tell there was no comunication between them. any tips from you guys , i'm very confused and don't know waht to do in this case 

I will be honest and let you know that your agent should be sending you personalized deal flow and providing numbers on why they think it's a great deal.

@Cameron NordinA cost segregation study accelerates depreciation by classifying certain building components as personal property or land improvements, allowing them to be depreciated over shorter recovery periods (e.g., 5, 7, or 15 years instead of 27.5 or 39 years).By accelerating depreciation, cost segregation lowers your tax basis more quickly than standard straight-line depreciation.

A nice but expensive duplex on a beach or in an expensive area might be ideal, if you can swing the other half out of personal funds. 

Personally, if the property is in a bad area, this will give you headaches no matter what.

RE has always been a lifestyle for me personally.
