My spreadsheet also includes FMV of every property so I can monitor appreciation, year over year comparison of tax & insurance increases, current rent & last increase & last amount, etc.

Hopefully kept good records of improvements / anything to increase the basis2.

Also, watch out for any litigation or construction issues that could lead to HOA fee increases down the road.Alternatively, you could consider a good deal on a single-family home or a 2-4 unit property.

i am totally impressed with the way 'guru' out there trying to influence people promising there's a gold cave somewhere from 'infinite banking' to 'my own the greatest system ever' :-) I bet they save their money in the crypto token as well.

Can you PROVE that the landscaping increases rents of ability to rent? 

By accelerating your depreciation schedules, you reduce your taxable income which in turn increases your operating cash flow.

Thus, when a foreclosure sale is held, you can set the bid amount up to the amount of the total debt, which would likely increase from 80K to include the legal fees, receivership costs(we suggest 5 - 10% of the rents collected), repair costs, additional accrued interest, minus rents collected.

the key to a BRRRR, whether it's going to be an STR or LTR, is this:distress.you need to find a significantly distressed property, such that you can increase the ARV via the rehab. 

However, that will likely lead to increased turnover and increased vacancy time in between tenants.

There are a lot of ways to crash and burn, so increasing the odds of succeeding long term should be your highest priority. you can always sell your local assets once you're comfortable managing rentals and ready for a market that better-suits your criteria. btw, kudos for being self-aware of your limitations.
