I wanted to start with a cheaper property I could reasonably afford and also learn from.

I imagine cost of labor might be a little bit cheaper in Idaho compared to Connecticut as we ended up paying 10k for gas furnace and 5k for AC with 10 yr warranty for Lennox product.  

Too many newbies seem to think they can blindly follow "old" advice in today's real estate market and be successful.Many, basically get taken advantage of by those in the industry that have an incentive to keep newbies blind to new realties, just to keep their good times rolling.What many newbies have figured out is that they can't make the numbers work on rental purchases in their states - like California, Arizona, New York, New Jersey, Washington, etc.What they have NOT figured out is that if they go to cheaper markets, they aren't being shown Class A rentals to buy.

If you do so - 100% of the cash converted is taxable.

After the labor cost to install, it's so much cheaper to go this route rather than using the Kitchen + Bath company for materials and labor.

My questions are;Do I have to take expenses as a deduction in a year in which they occurred even if I do not get income until the following year  I have other rental property, but my taxable income on them after expenses is only gonna be about $5000 So is there anyway to roll over expenses to the next year since I cannot deduct the remaining 15,000 and expenses against my W-2 income?

Quote from @Aj Green: Hey,(Posting again as I sign today so it is urgent)Is there any cheaper lender than a 6.75% for an Ohio investment property.No brokers fees, 110k, no points, 760+ credit score, 20% down, 140k value, no realtors, single family, rent covers mortgage, 30 year term fixed.Thanks for the help!

This would allow you to access some cash for other purposes ( Tax Free) because a refinance is not a taxable event.

One possibility is building a duplex in Peoria, while it's not the best rental market, getting a duplex at a possibly much cheaper price than market value is extremely appealing.

We will do multiple cheaper studies in this case, or bulk them all together into one.
