Depreciation reduces the cost basis of your property, and has it's own, 25% depreciation recapture tax rate when you sell. 

A separation of the property and the personal also allows scaling into more properties as each new property stands on its own for evaluation.Cons: higher rates and costs compared to conventional (although still should be reasonable and allow for a profitable deal, i.e. if rates are too high, the rent won't cover the financing costs so the rates have to be sensible and proportionate...)

We include real expenses accustomed to STRs so you can see the actual operating costs.

And, as Nathan noted, you are likely giving up huge appreciation potential, which will likely never be replaced by cash flow.But at the end of the day, if you are in a declining market in LA and are able to find great deals in higher cash flow areas, taking into account the likelihood of needing to outsource everything and additional travel costs to visit the properties a couple times per year, and you don't really care about appreciation, then it could work for you.  

They are very good at what they do and they have alot of free content on You Tube.

I was wondering what are wholesalers and flippers in the Columbus Ohio area using to roughly estimate rehab cost per square feet?

Investing in the property just back from Oceanfront maybe the ticket, but yes I think most investors are not looking at the high costs of investment in beachfront. 

The reason folks prefer not selling, is you avoid all the transaction costs..... why burn 6-8% of your profits if you can avoid it by holding onto the asset?
