Second, for you as a taxpayer you need to evaluate if your tax situation (e.g. property type, tax profile, material participation, etc.) will allow you to leverage additional losses generate from cost seg to optimize your taxes. 

It will depend on the bank and their threshold / programs they are participating in. 

For #3, I see multiple properties being sold like this, not $30k; but $200k properties being sold at tax deed auctions for $50k-75k#4 - I don't see how this could be realistic, how would someone have time or money to visit every single property in person especially when participating in multiple auctions across the state?

Frankly, we would not participate in the voucher program if it didn't have above-market upside in year two and beyond.

I was told that the dilution of my original investment would be 21.8% if I did not participate.

However, note that STR income may be considered active if you materially participate (e.g., managing bookings or tenant interactions), which could subject it to self-employment tax.This post does not create a CPA-Client relationship.

This allows us to participate in both pushing rents while also limiting vacancy exposure.

I have not started, completed or participated in a syndication so tough to assess an ROI at this time.

Can you please provide some context on which project you participated in?

Participants are continuously told “we’ll cover all these details so you can do this too in just a moment”, the moment never arrives.
