When an investment is made, you need to clearly document the relative proportions of Roth and Tax-Deferred funds applied, and all future income and expenses need to be allocated on that same basis. 

It was just somewhere along the way that I decided to allocate those (mininal) funds to something else.I go through phases of super frugality where I cut any extra expenses....BP did not make the cut lol

This is just a small part of my investment allocation so I'm fine with what I do and the returns I get. 

You will have to use all the cash in the purchases but it can be allocated in anyway you want.So you could put all of the cash into one property paying cash for it or taking out a minimal loan.  

Your purchase price is 118k and you would use that to allocate the purchase price to building and depreciate. 

I will change my goal and allocate 10% to #5 on your list. :-)

when I think of that question I always ask myself where do I have the most control over the allocated budget I have for "marketing" to get leads.lucky for me, I've got an unfair advantage because of my background lolbut if I had a little bit of coin and a little bit of time, I'd pump $$ into PPC because I know the phone will ring AND I have a little more control over the marketing spend.  

If you value the portion of rent allocated to the home you will likely be overpaying. example…PARK VALUE: Lot rent is $400.

I have to allocate the sales price between the two classes, but by now the personal property is probably not worth the original $100k.

We plan on aggressively purchasing more in the next 3 years by allocating by liquidating some of our stock portfolio to REI3) We have an old trust, and thinking about creating a new one so we can include our new propertiesSo the questions are:1) When is a good time to think about putting our properties in a LLC as a way to shield our other assets.
