The tax advantages of buying/holding gas stations are pretty great.Many of the components of gas stations including pumps, tanks, external parking areas, and other equipment are classified as either 5 or 15 year property so you can bonus depreciate a lot of it (minus the land value) and get significant deductions in year 1.With the 2025 bonus depreciation rate at 40%, a $1 million gas station acquisition could still lead to $100K+ in year 1 deductions depending on the specifics of your deal.

You should consult an attorney or CPA for your specific situation.ANONYMITY: When you create the LLC, your name is recorded on the documents and published on the Secretary of State's website for all to see.

Happy to share lessons learned from out of state managing/investing if you have specific questions.

When you re-list the property, it will restart the counter for "days listed" (assuming it is down for a reasonable period of time, I'm not sure their exact specification, I know we've been down for 24-48 hours and it did not restart).

If you have specific questions about property management, I'll be happy to help!

Taxpayers should be aware of the criteria for this specific scenario.

I than let them know my top choices for PM/TP provider in that specific market, not just my own but whoever I see as current best, and what there rates are.     

Just because you want to hit a specific number doesn't mean the market will meet you there.Great example of how Class C properties may appear like great cash flowing investments on paper - meaning fully rented, paying on time and normal levels of maintenance.

Without know more specifics, I'd suggest selling what you have now and investing in properties closer to where you live (and pursue 1031 exchanges).
