I live in California but have some contacts in Las Cruces and I think it's a great place to buy some real estate. 

I personally don't think it's that great in terms of a full-on PM software.

When I hear "small market" I think 8-10 caps, but maybe my small isn't the same as yours.  

I think I will first reach out to my bank and maybe another individual that has experience in such properties that I know.

I don't think cap rate for residential RE is necessarily the best metric, but I try and achieve a 10% minimum gross rent to purchase price figure, so a $300K property I am hoping to achieve a $30K/month gross income goal.

Of them 3 i think most would say AZ.

here is what im thinking of buying. 8,151 sf. i plan on house hacking with the va n building a duplex on 1 side of the lot.

Think about what you can offer that's special or different to stand out.

(I'm thinking it has nothing to do with the replacement property.)Attached is a snippet of the flooring depreciation totals from my tax return.

Most professionals will recommend a separate LLC for every $1 million in assets but I don't think that's necessary.
