AKA very easy/simple things that require no actual part replacements or major work.My fear is that when I hand my portfolio over to a PM I will be getting a lot of high price maintenance expenses for service calls which might raise my expenses dramatically.

Thanks in advance.Looking for:• Multifamily rental in IndianapolisMy current financial situation:• ROTH IRA - $98 K Total (YTD Growth, 24%) / Available to take out $10K (w/o penalty, from either Roth or Simple, only 1 acct). ($46K in contributions)• Simple IRA - $39 K Total (YTD Growth, 16%) / Available to take out $10K (w/o penalty, from either Roth or Simple, only 1 acct). ($33K in contributions)• Financial Advisor Acct - $32 K Total (YTD Growth, 44%) / $20K in contributions.

If I make my this rental property my primary residence in the next 2 years before selling it, is it as simple as: 1) owning the property for 5 years 2) live there for 2 years,then when we sell, the capital gain could be reduced by the $500K (primary residence), or is it more complicate than that? 

@Michael Noto Yeah maybe it is that simple.

I have a triplex in Los Angeles and I need your suggestions for a good but not too expensive hard wired cameras that captures images and sound to monitor some suspicious activity.

It was it pretty simple platform but had everything I needed.

I'm fleshing out what you wrote and noting for everyone who doesn't do business in PA that it is specifically illegal to evict for retaliation in the Commonwealth.You are going to have a hell of a time convincing any local district magisterial judge that this is a simple open-and-shut case given that and the long, convoluted story of this brouhaha that you've laid out.

Capture the gains of the appreciated properties or invest new money in the multi family investments. 

then the owner thinks $75 is outrageous for you to do a simple task like change batteries or for your maintenance person to do it.   

Purchase multiple properties with heloc using it as a down payment (try to force some simple sweat equity to brrrr back DP)3.
