You're absolutely right about it that it could be a dangerous Job if carrying makes you feel safer that's fine.

Well, this is a wonderful thread.All I can really contribute with enough experience to be absolutely sure of what I say: if you live on the coasts and your spreadsheet tells you your best passive returns over the long haul are going to be in the Rust Belt in cheap rentals, then your spreadsheet needs to be looked at by someone with a lot more experience in cheap Rust Belt rentals than you have.My own take on the musings here of why everyone wants to quit their job these day and its possible connection to young people and their participation trophies, their possible work-ethic failings, moral turpitude, contemptible world outlook, lack of grit, et hoc genus omne...yeah, I know I don't know squat about all that.

So, you can absolutely use that money as a down payment for another property without worrying about taxes on it.That said, there’s one thing to watch out for.

We did a second Land Trust deal with another local company as trustee and had absolutely abysmal service.

You can offer options like reduced rent during disruptive repairs instead of relocation; simply as a courtesy, but absolutely not required. 

My boyfriend/fiance would never hurt a single soul unless you absolutely had to like life or death situations or he sees somebody hurting and innocent person or woman or defending someone he's not like that he never would be like that.

It was bought at a public auction where nearly 200 properties were auctioned off one by one with an announcement that the first six will be sold absolute, meaning the successful buyer with the highest bid will be accepted.

I would also prepare to sell it on the used marketplace but if you absolutely don’t want to go that route then I would recommend getting it included in the purchase upfront (but still use it as a bargaining chip first).3) marketing: the best target audience is going to be a savvy house-hacker for a property this style.  

@Sean Gammons I love house hacking and would absolutely do this every 12-15 months if my partner wasn’t totally against moving frequently.

I agree with the MTR option if you absolutely don’t want to sell.
