Isn't that an advantage when it comes to natural disasters, fire, etc.?

I am interested in using this method of investing, but how can I manage construction from another state?

Its one way of Buying and Holding, and accumulating more property, but obviously not the only method. 

(same thing, different name)I'd like to use this method, as my ultimate goal is to own multi-unit rental properties.

I'm looking at the different delivery methods of real estate classes & was wondering if there is such a thing as those classes on audiobook.

I am trying to file a Form 3115 to change accounting method on a rental house I sold in 2015 (I only took half the depreciation I was entitled to, and I would now like to claim the rest as a Section 481A adjustment on my Schedule E).  

I understand getting the seller to hold any paper solves all this but I'm looking for methods outside of the traditional.
