@Saurabh Kukreja we don't recommend investing via zip codes - too broad of an area.We've mapped out all of Metro Detroit and categorized Cities & Neighborhoods by Class A, B, C, & D.We take assisting investors very seriously, just read below:Recommend you first figure out the property Class you want to invest in, THEN figure out the corresponding location to invest in.If you apply Class A assumptions to a Class B or C purchase, your expectations won’t be met and it may be a financial disaster.If you buy/renovate a Class A property in Class D area, what quality of tenant will you get?

Melanie Baldridge What happens to your RE portfolio when you pass away?

The current tax code provides special benefits in this situation.When the original owner passes away, the "basis" of the assets resets to the market value at the date of death.In the US, there is currently an estate tax exemption of approximately $13 million per person, which allows the basis to reset, and depreciation can start anew.This “step-up in basis” is particularly useful if the next generation wants to sell the asset.Since their basis is set at market value, if the property is sold at that value either at the date of death or within six months, there is no capital gain and no taxable event.There have been many examples where portfolios of fully depreciated real estate worth tens of millions of dollars have been passed down from one generation to the next, resulting in little to no tax liabilities for their heirs.Pretty cool, right?
