Another strategy is looking at short term or mid term rentals thats one way to cashflow but it does take more work as your basically running a hotel business but once you figure how to automate things it will get easier at least thats what the short term rental investors tell me lol.

I am aggressively looking for property management companies for sale in Orange County CA.

I have a preapproval already and have posed this question to my lender but of course I emailed them after hours so I've been working through this in my head and figured I'd reach out for general thoughts.

Now let’s say they figure out they’re broke and don’t go through with a deal.

I'm looking to figure out a rough estimate on the percentage that can be used for bonus depreciation if I were to purchase in this area.
