I can definitely tell you there's still a lot of positive cash flowing and 1% rule deals and you get amazing appreciation.

The NC return is correct as is in my opinion.Remember that states often piggyback off Federal amounts, often AGI or taxable income (then make upward or downward adjustments for things like 179 or depletion).Since the passive loss did not enter the taxable income calculation at the Federal level, it won't flow to the state return when NC piggybacks.

-what would the cash flow be like if you moved out?

Houston TX- I obtained all my landlord insurance through Matic, with their partner being State Auto.

Cash flow and access to capital are common problems for real estate investors and house flippers.

I also don't quite see it as being the same as picking a city to live in - I went through that process in choosing Austin but that was more emotionally driven. 

This is can provide investors with more flexibility in cash flow, allowing potential investment in multiple deals at once.

Yep, through trial and error I have found weekly is working for me now.

I gave him my thoughts about the property and he looked at me and said, "You are probably laughing at me right now knowing what I am about to go through by self-managing". 

Any suggestions on good locations for cash flow properties for multifamily of 20+ units?
