If so then you may/could be entering the realm of a non-arms length 'identity of interest' deal & potentially mortgage fraud, so any fear of a taxable event would be the least of your problems.

But I think it would actually take me longer to do given the loss of one of my financing legs that I had during this run.IF I could have that back, then I could probably add 4 or 5 houses a year instead of the 3 that I've been doing over the last 5 years.Knowing what I know now, I don't think anybody thats done over 10 deals wouldn't be able to at least get back to where they were provided their financial condition was identical.

Given two identical applications, but one with an ESA , the other without, even the best of landlords will choose the one without, and even choose another “lesser good” one.

You will also find that it is easier to find property types in the same caste of structural preference.3.Purchase only properties of a similar build: Because the homes I buy are in close proximity to one another, I find it easy to repeatedly select similar, if not identical structures.

Maybe the sign was there just to scare off thieves.

For example: could a home in the north-eastern corner of the Las Vegas addition pull comps from the north-western corner of Gatewood (assuming the homes are identical in terms of interior/rehab quality)?  

With the last 10 years as a Retail Investigator and catching fraudsters and thieves, Im looking to expand my earning ceiling and going into Real Estate.

Four identical units, 600 sf each.

The numbers you described resonate hard with me because it's nearly identical to my first rental property.

It may be a case of mistaken identity.
