Renting by room to the max occupancy to minimize the outflow of your personal cash into the property.3.

Also, I would personally get rid of the dishwasher as well, 1 less liability to worry about.

I personally hear from tons of people who think the market will come down, due to the struggling middle class and the fact that it will get worse.

Any tips you could share would be greatly appreciated.I'm Canadian investor looking to BRRRR in Texas so will not be in person. 

David, the amount you will have to spend to locate the property (run adds, put up signs, buy lists and etc) is not comparable to the amount you would have to invest if you wanted to personally buy that property, hire a crew to fix it and absorb the costs of owning that property before you could sell it.

I'm not.The way around it is a single-person LLC owned by only one person and not their spouse.

In CA, generally, if a tenants dog gets out and attacks a person or pet by way of landlord negligence, like through a broken window or faulty door, then you the landlord could be held liable.

Feel free to DM/Email me. 

However, minor cosmetic repairs or repairs to personal property cannot be deducted such as paint, replacing broken hardware, fixing leaks or holes, etc.(2) If you have other types of investments (e.g., stocks or mutual funds) that are operating at a loss, if you liquidate those investments to take a loss, you can use those losses to offset your capital gains.

@Derek Morrison I list “typical qualifications” in my rental listing then have a specific email response to inquiries that again lists my “typical qualifications,” along with an attached application form, that if they meet those, they can request appt x day for 20-minute time slot, and I only accept applications after meeting them at the appointment.
