In that respect, stripping out the previous experience, what new things did you learn from this project that might benefit others, such as myself with the 'newbie' perspective?

I also know very little about the tax benefits, or lack of with each option.

Another benefit is getting a list of cash buyers in the area in order to build your buyers.

Bite the bullet now, and reap the benefits later.So, etiher way, it can work.

It sounds to me that he's saying, I as a landlord of a residential property would not benefit from this tax change because it wouldn't apply to me.  

Furthermore, it is very easy to "pierce the corporate veil" because, presumably, you will be living in the house i.e. you are getting direct benefit from the asset (and the asset protection is in name only). 

Which leads me to three.Third, one of the best parts of real estate investing is the benefit of having a tenant pay off your mortgage.

It is then up to the borrower to make their own intelligent decision.Sorry for the rant but had to be said, for the benefit of others.

@Joshua Savage,IRA (and investments you make with your IRA) designed to provide you with the future benefits, at retirement.

I’m not sure to wait till somthing adjusts with the market or to jump on somthing decent now.
