I did have an interesting conversation with their "director of education" who spends an hour to see if potential students have what it takes to qualify for their limited number of coaching slots...in less than a half hour he decided I wasnt a good fit for their program, and hung up on me :-) My non proprietary "secret" is; think about who the buyer is, figure out what they want and give it to them.

Since the company will be making money per bed of the house, you can usual get them on a lease higher than FMV rent in your area.

Gators are no different than hamas!

I have a good income and credit score.

This year The Bourbon Trail will generate more revenue than Napa Valley.

Or use your credit card or get one if you're able to, preferably at 0% interest.

If you’re working with a tax professional ask them to do a tax projection for you with one scenario assuming you sell all 5 today and the other assuming you only sold 2 today.With the tax projection you’ll now have a good estimate of what your tax situation will look like and can make decision based on that.Maybe you can consider selling your portfolio and doing an installment sale, this won’t help on the depreciation recapture but it would help spread the gain over multiple years.Each strategy has pros and cons, if you want to rip the bandaid off an be done cold turkey (or warm turkey if you’re into that) there most likely will be a large tax hit but less headache holding them longer.

If I had less experience a lot of issues might deter me and I would look for a new deal.

Total cost about $35k before hopeful tax credits.   

If I like what I see and the numbers support it I'll be making more than one trip.
