Since that home is in my personal name, can I write off the losses as a “rental” which it’s intended to be but not quite yet? 

Hi Folks,I'm starting out with some rental properties in Wenatchee Washington.

@Joan LiuWhat you describe is often the pitch of someone doing rental arbitrage.  

I came across rental property investing through Robert Kiyosaki's books and I am currently reading The Book On Rental Property Investing by Brandon Turner.

.- Management Fees: 2% of gross rental income annually.- Acquisition Fee: 2% of the purchase price.- Disposition Fee: 1% of the sale price.Option 2: Debt Financing with Equity Upside- Target Properties: Single-family homes, multifamily properties, and land for development in prime locations.- Interest Rate: 6% interest only for a term of 5 to 10 years- Prepayment Penalty: 2% if the loan is paid within the first 3 years- Equity Upside: Investor receives 30% equity of the appreciationWhich option do you think is more attractive and why?

I want to get an equity line of credit on my rental but I believe I just got scammed by Crowne Lending Services.

Is there some other way to have your rental mortgages paid through a business?

Do you own any other rentals? 

As I'm developing my marketing strategy for house hacking, I want to emphasize and understand who my potential roommates are and what their potential needs are.I envision the tenant to be a young professional or student looking for housing, but I would like to gather more insights:Amenities and Needs:What sort of amenities and features do young professionals and students typically look for in a rental property?
