You'll definitely get the long term appreciation in the San Diego market since our supply levels remain low which helps to insulate our market here, but it will be hard to cash flow on immediately unless you use one of the above strategies I mentioned. 

You want to put everything in writing and be very clear about expectations and responsibilities.You also need to verify the remaining tenant can afford the rent.

You have already seen the downside of a historically zero appreciation market (zero appreciation I define as historically below the rate of inflation).  

Indeed, where we pay a REALTOR commission, we are initially under water, but look at the long- term probability the rental will remain in the system.

I think there’s plenty of books and plenty of podcasts to get you the information you need for less than $300 and then you’ll have all the remaining cash to do your first STR with.

However, in the inner ring suburbs that I live in, there are quads everywhere, built in the 1920-1960s, generally, and they have remained in demand for nearly a hundred years.  

I could not find the answer I'm looking for when searching.The following example could be used:- Amount invested $100k- Preferred return (5 years): 8% or $8k- Disposition (Sale) (Year 5): $200kThis simple example assumes no cash flow beyond the preferred return, no cost segregation/bonus segregation, and doesn't take depreciation into account.Would the first 5 years of cash flow (preferred return) not be taxed, and only the remaining amount on the disposition would be taxed (e.g. $200k - $100k + 5 * $8k = $140k)?  

Thanks to NYCs LL18, the Airbnb market in JC remains strong no matter where you're looking.

Especially when you’re dealing with a 🤡 with an inflated ego.   

This would result in the veteran's entitlement being encumbered meaning the veteran only has partial, or possibly no entitlement remaining ie they might not be able to use their entitlement again until the loan is paid off.
