The free marketing is not effective in a competitive market neither is the marketing strategy.

In this example the initial investment would be $50,000.So the owner of the IRA would have to pay 37% in taxes seems to negate the interest paid of 12.5% annually.Do I have this correct?

Also, focus on 2 years of job/income stability.Class D Properties:Cashflow vs Appreciation: Typically, all cashflow with little, maybe even negative, relative rent & value appreciationVacancy Est: 20%+ should be used to cover nonpayment, evictions & damages.Tenant Pool: majority will have FICO scores under 560 (almost 30% probability of default), little to no good tradelines, lots of collections & chargeoffs, recent evictions.

Point is the above comments there are many other more effective ways to meet the FINCEN stated objectives for tax evasion, money laundering and terrorism.   

The major negative experiences for me had to do with ship times (their updates are on the slower side) or what happens if product is damaged or arrives late. 

My net rental income was $300 to $500 a month, not enough to cover the mortgage payment (PITI) so I'm negative on what was supposed to cash flow on paper.

Net migration is negative for a reason.

As others have stated, you'll always encounter issues, problems, and complaints (negative reviews) from all sides tenants, landlords, and vendors.The bottom line?

I have a calculator (semi-ugly but effective excel sheet) I use to look at the numbers on all 1031 exchanges I’m considering.Let me know if you want help with the calculations

Just remember: most negative reviews are written by problematic tenants.
