There used to be some landlord seminars for Dallas Housing Authority ever so often, so that might be a good place to ask if they are still doing those.One thing to think about is if Section8 might be subject to the DOGE cuts?

For context, 4 adults and all our tech living here, we were running about $250/mo on average per month for electricity anyway... outside of summer a/c useage. so all in all, its saved me about $2k a year if i had to guesstimate for you (it stays hot here through October usually).i still owe about $23k on mine, have no intentions of selling the house. but if i decide to move out and rent the whole house out, our market would support higher rent in exchange for no electricity bill. i think you just need to decide what YOUR main benefit of having the panels are. for me it was for the house-hack, and consistent billing, despite the usage. if its strictly for property value increase, i'm not sure it would be worth it, pending your specific market. 

How do you come up with $60/PER DAY as a hot spot charge?

Even if you create a non-CA LLC, if you are managing the business from California, you will likely be deemed to be "doing business" in California and therefore likely subject to CA taxes.

Justin Long (the STR landlord) didn't do so hot in that movie lol.Been doing mine for 2.5 years. 

Rochester, NY is a very hot market, there are very few homes for sale.  

Portage Park has been a hot growth area!

The previous owners did a do-it-yourself remodel which had tons of red flags if I had taken the time to cross-reference the sellers disclosure with the inspection report, but at that time the market was hot and I had to move fast.

I hope everyone scammed here is able to recover at least some money; however the subject “guru” appears to be quite adept at dodging responsibility and consequences.  

While it can be beneficial for spreading tax liability and estate planning, DSTs are complex, costly, and subject to IRS scrutiny, requiring precise implementation.
