Two heads are better than one.Those of us who are familiar with section 10 know that it can be all over the place but it is a very popular area for people to buy.

Yes where you personally want to live is very popular.

Just to add one more knock to the list, Wichita Falls is a bit of a soft market and land/home is somewhat popular there.  

But a recent 7 million dollar project just completed around the corner including a 100+ stall parking garage and 225 seat performing arts theater and popular hipster restaurant represent at least some money coming back to the area.

These days, not so much.Moving income from a high bracket tax year to a year with lower ANTICIPATED income is always popular, but with bracket compression may result in very little savings.  

Contrary to the popular belief that partnerships don't work, I am in a partnership and it works extremely well for both of us. 

@Daniel Collins  Really depends on your goals.. do you want to be snow birds as well. so maybe a condo in a resort rental setting were you can use it occasionally would fit the bill.the cash flow markets that are popular with turn key are somewhat interchangeable.. most will go with the team they are most comfortable and confident in.. 

We have only had 2 different renters, not much overhead costs even though it is a old home and it is a very popular area.  

It's a nasty hit but a popular one it seems.However, you begin to describe another model that can be made to work rather well.  

Turnkey property companies and broker/property managers have both become popular because you can align interests very well with everyone.The key is a lot of due diligence.
