Military personnel are frequently forced to relocate due to changes in their duty stations, making compliance with the two-year ownership and use tests difficult.A partial exclusion is available under IRC section 121(c) for taxpayers that are forced to sell their home before satisfying the two-year ownership or use requirement due to change in employment, health, or unforeseen circumstances.

They just proposed a sales tax on soda pop (for "health reasons" - not the fact that increased taxes on soda would be collected from adults and children of all ages) that would increase the cost by 50% for soda.Does Arizona have similar situations to look out for in the future?

Also the type of work - if you're dealing health dept. violations and having to handle mold or lead, for the sake of your tenants or buyers, you really should use a professional and do the job right - otherwise you're the one left holding the bag when a kid tests for elevated lead.I've used both licensed and unlicensed and I've had both good and bad experiences with each. 

Homes are individually metered, separate septic, separate propane, no HOA's, No association, both ranch style and the 2004 home is an aging in place home with Digital Health and established, listed Airbnb.

I, too, lost property in the past, but it was due to health issues and having no support system. 

The biggest motivation that i have is to not have my mom have to suffer with terrible health care like my grandmother did before she had passed away due to being on medicare the quality of life she had really bothered me. 

I work as a draft tech for Lipman & Yazoo Beer, while also running a small business I started up this year in Health & Nutrition.

C's can have some favorable tax treatment- cafeteria benefits (really cool- we love the small, closely held private corporation model for this reason-- though we don't own real estate in our C corp-- that's another story) which can include education, life and health insurance, child care, and even fitness facilities, meals, and other benefits- pre tax).  

I base my bold statement about Self-Storage on my personal success in that niche (recently turned 40K investment into 60K per year in positive cashflow and increased equity in the property from the 40K I invested to $500K in just 18 months.....hence the bias:) but also on some key statistics. 1) Self Storage REITS were the top performing REITS for 2011 with returns of 35.22 and second for 2012 (to the Timber REIT) coming in at 19.942) Self-Storage Backed Loans default less than any other real estate backed loan on the PLANET (including owner occupied homes).....less than 8% default rate says something about the health of an industry.3) Income to Expense Ratios hover around 33% in Self Storage compared to 50+% for apartments/offices, etc.At the very least, I would encourage you to take a look at this niche!

Looking at prices of common goods one can see price inflation; see gasoline, health care, college tuition, food, silver, oil, etc.
