Not surprised he is a property manager.

I have an excellent agent partner who is an MTR manager there with 24 units.

Warning:If you depreciate a property down near zero and then have to sell your property at a loss during a situation of distress...You could end up giving all the proceeds to the bank AND owe the IRS a big chunk of money for recapture.Long-term tax planning with real estate needs to be coupled with risk management and making sure you don't lose any properties.

If the property is close enough, you can also forego the property management and handle it yourself in the short term. 

Local PM here - we have multiple development projects we are gearing up to sell, both small multifamily and townhouses should you want to take a peak at them.

Hello, I'm in the process of purchasing a single-tenant commercial building, and I'm looking for recommendations on property management software.

I work with a lot of househackers and they're typically on the 12 month cycle, rinse and repeat.While the proposition of acquiring an investment property outside of your market in a "landlord friendly" state may sound appealing, i would recommend you stay local for now and househack another couple of properties over the next few years until you've got some more time / experience under your belt.you would need a management company to cover your property that is outside of your market which would not only take 8-10% of your gross it would also leave you a bit vulnerable to a property management company that you A.)know nothing about and B.)you won't have the experience or cashflow or proximity to deal with any headaches that may arise.i would recommend staying local and househacking your way along for now and then maybe hire a local property management company initially to work with your current/local properties to get a taste of what to expect if and when you begin investing outside of your market.

I want to know more about the area and build a team that can help me purchase and manage properties.
