This is a follow up post to one I created yesterday regarding a DSCR loan.  

This is often achieved with written documentation, such as a formal ROW request from TxDOT or other correspondence indicating that condemnation proceedings were possible if no settlement was reached.

Being this next house hack will likely be my last, this is why I’m trying to think of other creative strategies.  

Welcome to the community and be ready for a huge amount of information at your finger tips.

My question is this, can I deduct my passive losses that occurred in 2017 on my 2017 taxes or does it get rolled over to 2018 because my income is too high?

So you don't need an umbrella.I don't agree with this.
