FYI: most cities won't allow a tenant to live in a basement, but they don't care that an owner lives in it.

In fact, now may be the best time of the year to buy properties due to reduced buyer competition and seller motivation (those selling now are probably committed.)

There is a unique tax deduction in the US called a “conservation easement.”It was designed by the IRS to encourage real estate owners to make pristine land, that could be enjoyed by the public, a conservation ground, and thus un-developable.In return, the landowner could treat the act of granting a “conservation easement” as tax-deductible.

I am ready to take on my first fix and flip and have seen a few properties with a realtor I really like.

I've currently got 2 multifamily properties here with 5 total units -- I live in 1 of them.It's been extremely difficult to find multifamily properties that meet the criteria that I'm looking for through the MLS, and when I do, they're extremely overpriced.

There are a lot of owners that have great purchase prices and 3 to 4% Interest rates that bought 5, 10 or more years ago.If you want to jump into the STR market game now in competitive markets you better run your numbers conservatively and you need an appealing location and property to be competitive.

Hi, does anyone know any lender that can do HELOCs on investment properties? 

Once that has been done I'd like to purchase a property walking distance from myself so I can keep an eye on the property and because I don't have a car.
