It drives me crazy but it does force me to 'prove it' before we spend money.

Alternatively, you're a 5 minute drive to the resort.

@Anthony DiSanzowhy not stay within driving distance to be hands-on? 

Extending and expanding these credits could be a huge step toward addressing the affordability crisis by boosting supply in struggling areas.It’ll be interesting to see how Scott Turner builds on his past work with Opportunity Zones to drive progress. 

You can only play games for so long.Chances are your next door neighbor is an IRS agent and turns you in when your tenants blocks their drive or some other random event disturbing your IRS neighbor.ADU catches fire and your insurance won't cover you, because it was an illegal and unpermitted structure.The city inspector told the last guy not to build or rent it, and is now pissed and wants to make an example of you and just red tags the whole property and no one can occupy for the next 1-2-3 years while you wait for a hearing.Then when you get the hearing, "staff" recommends you tear the whole structure down, and if you still want an ADU, you can apply for a permit and rebuild it.Your tenant quits paying rent and won't move out and you can't evict them, because there is no valid lease and they're just your "roommate".Probably a dozen other bad things can happen to you when you do stuff like this. 

Water is the root of all evil. 

We are simply a group of almost 150 investors in RADD who have had zero returns and are looking for options to get our money back...if possible. unless there is insurance to go after or some hidden deep pockets  class action is a non starter I suspect. just looks like from we see a failed investment or at least a deeply flawed one.

A more accurate way to describe it is "I received no income" - because you can have deals but still have no profit if your expenses are greater than your income.If you were actively looking for deals (and can document it) - as opposed to merely planning to start later - then you file Schedule C and claim business expanses such as marketing, driving, technology and so on. 

If you don't learn to manage your investment well, you will eventually destroy your property, lose money, waste your time, or drive yourself insane.

As far as investing out of state goes, I would pick something you can drive to in 4 hrs or less.
