Setting up a bank account where tenants can deposit cash will help getting rent without having to walk around with too much cash in your pocket and provides and instant record of rents received but may not help the paper trail for an eviction.

The card itself gives you instant 2% off all purchases (including sale prices) and 2% store rebate (although they don't give you this til the end of the year).Plus Menards offers additional discounts as well depending on the materials you buy - an additional 2 to 5% typically.Sounds like Lowes is a bit better and I always use their card for the carpet discount.

Biweekly or Weekly options allow you match up to the tenants payday.

In the early years it was very useful to have a wallet full of credit cards. or as I said instant hard money.

That's a nice payday too :D

I would offer numbers below market so you have created instant equity.  

There are definitely 'Detroit-like' market collapses in areas, but they tend to be more of a slow train wreck than an instant crash.- If you have bought for your tenant market, the renters will not necessarily disappear.

first,  there are no kits that convert a gas water heater to the little vapors that the instant water heaters put out.  

@Dawn Anastasi good question.Debit cards check for available funds immediately and return a failure instantly if there are insufficient funds.

So...The instant choices boil down to whether the "farmer investor" wishes to create an immediate "taxable event" by selling now, (with minimal tax-bite because of a recent "stepped up basis") and banking the cash for more investment purchasing flexibility in the event of a major crash in real estate and currency values, or...Entering into a tax-deferred 1031 exchange now?
