I have an SFR + ADU & bonus unit cash flowing like an absolute boss, but I can only appraise it for its residential value.  

I know this comes with bonus pdf and videos that explain the changes but wondering if main book is relevant anymore.

Bonus if you are buying and or re-purposing assets not even on other's radar.  

Its complicated and you will want to run that past your CPA.The other option you mentioned, buying real estate and utilizing accelerated / bonus depreciation, could work. 

Odesk holds back your first payment to a VA for several days, to ensure you are satisfied.)11.I always pay by “Bonuses”.

That is just a bonus. 

I’m seeking cash flow with added bonus of potential appreciation.

I also got about $5K worth of points/bonuses/etc I had saved up from hotel/credit card points from work.

As an added bonus, by holding nonmanaging membership interests,  one may avoid paying self-employment tax, similar to limited partnership interests.  

@Matt McLeodI never assume my rentals are going to appreciate, so it is a great bonus when they do.This property passes my 1% rule test, so I'd look further at it as a rental.I would find out exactly how much the following expense are going to cost you each month.
