I do not pay for courses or services.

I want to start investing into section 8 housing, and I have heard a lot when it comes to cost segregation and the effect that it can have on one's taxes throughout the year. 

Normally they're set up to take a lot of your money and sell you some kind of monthly software subscription.Search google for a white paper on tax lien/deed investing in your state. 

In my case, for instance, even though I'm the top contributor to the tax forum, I have learned a ton from my fellow tax experts who replied to questions that I did not know answers to and even corrected me on multiple occasions.

My recommendation is sell and take up to a $500k TAX FREE PROFIT (assuming your married).

Taxes are 2.9%.

but it's not 2016 anymore.it's just to pay the same, or less than, you would renting.I'm going to use simple numbers. say you could rent for $2000 a month, or you could house hack, and if you house hack, you'd still need to pay $1432 toward the mortgage after collecting rent. this is way, way better. why?

If your tenant demands they work outside of those hours, then they have to pay the extra cost the contractor may charge for after-hours work (typically 50% more).I recommend you take control of the situation.

I generally don't set a number I look at credit history for lower scores if it is a medical issue I will view differently than if you just are overburdened by debt and just not paying.  

Some of the things I'd like it to do/keep track of:-Track purchase price, details of any loans, and current equity in the property as well as total portfolio equity-Track current and past rents for properties-Track total ROI for individual properties, as well as entire portfolio-Track expenses, be able to upload receipts, bills, etc-Track Debt service pay down, appreciation estimates, etcNOT looking for management software like Buildium, Doorloop, Appfolio, etc   Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.
