The house had some signs of foundation settlement when he bought it which were chalked up to age, however it’s clear now that there has been more recent movement (some of this may have been due to an earthquake a few years ago) causing about 3 inches of settlement along this very small house.   

As my parents age, I am assisting in their property management of their primary residence and would love to connect with other real estate investors in the area.

Additionally, since my parents are nearing the retirement age, I'd like to prioritize low-debt, high-cashflow deals.

Based on the knowledge and experience you have, would you consider this strategy if you had to go back at my age?

Some of his advice didn't age well.

I thought SDIRA max contribution is $5,500 or $6,500 if over the age of 55?  

I need to defer or lower our income as much as possible for my age 64.At age 64 a cost seg makes strategic sense, take the deduction now and not over 27.5 years, or 39 if commercial.

I just want to get the management side of things right if I were to commit virtually all of my resources to it.Best,Dustin The rule of thumb is somewhere between 80 and 150 units is when you will need FT maintenance (depending on age and amount of deferred maintenance). 

Husband and I both work w2 full time jobs and we have 3 girls ages 9. 7, and 3!

My question is: could the current tenant (age 59) remain in the property if she becomes eligible for Section 8 assistance?
